"O Come All Ye Faithful" was my son's favorite song when he was young, and I would sing it to him before bed all year long. My husband first noticed me at church when I sang "Little Drummer Boy." And, I love to sing O Holy Night." So, I guess I am saying that I do not have just one favorite Christmas song. Thanks for the chance to win!

O Holy Night - either with an orchestra or a singer with a strong, beautiful voice.

Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy from Bing Crosby and David Bowie and A Christmas to Remember from Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton. When I hear these two songs I can remember exactly where I was the first time I saw them in the Christmas specials on tv.
What great giveaways!

Hi Ali!
Awesome giveaway :) My favorite Christmas song is probably "Away In a Manger" because I sang it with my high school choir, and to this day it still gives me chills. It is a beautiful song.
Happy Holidays!

The First Noel is one of my all-time faves. My son requests Away in a Manger every night before bed so I'd have to say that it is a close 2nd!
