    This is absolutely my favorite newer song. I like the version on a Gaither album that was done by the two fellows that wrote it. There is a harmonica part that is just haunting.
    I didn't find that one... but I did find a wonderful version by the Gaithers on YouTube which is very powerful:

    "Carol of the Bells' is one of my all time favorites. My dad used to sing this and others on Christmas Eve at midnight Mass-accapella. It's a sweet reminder of him

    I just ordered the CD for my mom for Christmas. It is Gaither Vocal Band Reunion II. I got it from Christian Book.com. There is a phone number and the girl can find it for you. The CD was $11.95 +$3.99 shipping. Money well spent for a Mom! I had never heard the song before and watched it on youtube and sat here and bawled. Thank you for mentioning to us. Such a beautiful new Christmas song! Edie

    Isn't it just a wonderful song, Edie?

    I think I'm going to get called on to do a solo in church on Christmas Eve, and I actually started this thread to find out what song would be the most meaningful.

    There's a women's choir that usually sings on Christmas Eve, but the director's husband died unexpectedly this summer, and so the holiday just isn't going to be the same for her, and I think that's why the choir is not going to be singing this year.

    Can't pick a favorite. I love almost all of them!! I have to say I love the one by BRUCE and Paul McCartney's but mostly the traditional ones.
