What's Your Favorite Christmas Song?

One of my favorite things about Christmas is Christmas music! I love Christmas carols/songs/hymns and I play it all constantly throughout December- in the car, at home, at work...I really make use of my Christmas Pandora station!

I love fun songs like...
Santa Baby
The Twelve Days of Christmas
I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas
I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus
Christmas Don't be Late (Chipmunks!)
Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas. :)

And you can't forget the classics...

Silent Night
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
Oh Come All Ye Faithful
What Child is This
The First Notel
Oh Little Town of Bethlehem

So what is my favorite? Hands down- Oh Holy Night

O holy night, the stars are brightly shining;
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope, the weary soul rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.

Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night, O night divine!

Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here came the wise men from Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger,
In all our trials born to be our friend!

Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night, O night divine!

Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His Gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother
And in His Name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy Name!

Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night, O night divine!

What is your favorite Christmas song? :)
