24 Best Christmas Worship Songs
Ben White

With Christmas just around the corner, it's the time to blast Christmas songs. Christmas songs are the best. My favorites are the ones that praise God. It is such a good reminder that this celebratory season is not about Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer or Santa Baby. This is the season to praise God for humbling Himself and coming to earth to dwell with His people. Here are some of my favorite Christian Christmas songs.

1. "How Many Kings" by Downhere

"And how many gods have poured out their hearts / To romance a world that is torn all apart?/ How many fathers gave up their sons for me?"

2. "Silent Night" by Carpenters

"Silent night, holy night! / All is calm, all is bright. / Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child. / Holy infant so tender and mild

3. "The First Noel" by Phil Wickham

"The First Noel the Angels did say / Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay / In fields where they lay keeping their sheep / On a cold winter's night that was so deep"

4. "Mary Did You Know?" by Anthem Lights

"Did you know / That your Baby Boy is heaven's perfect Lamb? / The sleeping Child you're holding is the great 'I am'"

5. "The Little Drummer Boy" by Harry Simeone Chorale

"I played my drum for Him pa-rum pum pum pum / I played my best for Him pa -rum pum pum pum / Rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum / Then He smiled at me pa-rum pum pum pum"

6. "Angels We Have Heard On High" by Sanctus Real

"Angels we have heard on high / Oh, the mountains tremble in reply."

7. "O Come All Ye Faithful" by Phil Wickham

"Hail, Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning / Jesus, to Thee be all glory given / Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing"

8. "O Come Let Us Adore Him" by Hillsong Worship

"The oceans and skies / Lift up their voice / And all all He has made / Will rise to bless / The King of all kings."

9. "Come Thou Long Expected Jesus" by Kings Kaleidoscope

"Come Thou long expected Jesus / Born to set Thy people free / From our fears and sins, release us / Let us find our rest in Thee "

10. "What Child Is This?" by Harry Simeone Chorale

"So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh, / Come, peasant, King, to own Him; / The King of kings salvation brings, / Let loving hearts enthrone Him.

11. "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" by Rend Collective

"Born that man no more may die / Born to raise the sons of earth / Born to give them second birth"

12. "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" by Hillsong Worship

"A blessed angel came / And unto certain shepherds / Brought tidings of the same / How that in Bethlehem was born / The son of God by name "

13. "O Holy Night" by Kari Jobe

"Long lay the world in sin and error pining / 'Til He appeared and the soul felt its worth "

14. "Do You Hear What I Hear?" by Third Day

"The Child, the Child, sleeping in the night / He will bring us goodness and light "

15. "O Come O Come Emmanuel" by The Civil Wars

"O come, O come Emmanuel / And ransom captive Israel / That mourns in lonely exile here / Until the Son of God appears"

16. "Joy To The World" by Hillsong Worship

"He rules the world with truth and grace / And makes the nations prove / The glories of His righteousness / And wonders of His love "

17. "Christmastide" by The Brilliance

"Christmastide, bring us peace tonight / Christmastide, we thank you for Your life"

18. "His Name Shall Be" by Matt Redman

"He came to lift the weary ones / Give peace and perfect rest / To take away our burdens and / To give a glorious gift"

19. "Oh Light (feat. Gungor and All Sons & Daughters)" by The Liturgists

"Oh light Mending fractured earth / The soul now felt its worth / Holy night"

20. "Our King Has Come" by Hillsong Worship

"For the Lord has done great things / Oh how my soul will sing"

21. "The First Noel" by Sleeping at Last

"And to the earth

It gave great light. / And so it continued / Both day and night."

22. "Joy" by Mercy Me

"Let no sins and sorrows grow / Nor thorns infest the ground / He makes His blessings flow / Far as the curse is found / Rejoice the Savior reigns"

23. "Glory" by Gungor

"Jesus Jesus / Hope and joy / In a baby boy / Come to love and come to free us"

24."Joyful Joyful" by The Brilliance

"Melt the clouds of sin and sadness / Drive the dark of doubt away / Giver of immortal gladness / Fill us with the light of day"

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
