The remarkable gift of music may be appreciated more at Christmas than at any other time of the year. At parties and church services, at concerts and quiet times at home, music is a thread that weaves through it all and binds us together.

The songs of Christmas take many forms. They are soft and contemplative. They are joyous and exuberant. They are uncomplicated and pure.

This anthology of songs, poems, Scripture passages, artwork, and more has been compiled to help your family prepare for and celebrate the Christ Child’s birth. Read, sing, and rejoice in the greatest gift to all the world—our Savior, Jesus Christ.
