Merry Christmas Songs

Christmas On Net >> Merry Christmas >> Merry Christmas Songs

Music is the mirror of heart. It has often been seen that pent up emotions find a better reflection in music than in words. Each and every mood has its own kind of music to be expressed with. Religion has a long association with music. Songs or instrumental music are the integral part of celebrating religious festivals. Christmas is the biggest festival for almost half of the globe. It is expected that almost all would like to sing along the hymns to invoke God. Christmasonnet will focus on some of the widely popular Merry Christmas songs that are ideal to be sung during Christmas.

The main thing that must be kept in mind while choosing Merry Christmas songs is the amount of ease the lyric of the song can give the singers while being sung. The tune of the songs must not have difficult twists that make it difficult for the singers to sing along. After all, everybody cannot be expected to possess a nice voice with expertise in the art of singing. Children often join their parents to sing the Merry Christmas songs. So easy articulation is the first consideration made before choosing Merry Christmas Songs.

Christmas is probably the only religious festival into which numerous other implications have been incorporated and it is now a celebration beyond religious festivals. So the celebration comprises of a lots of festivity along with eating lip-smacking food. Christmasonnet has an array of Merry Christmas songs that are made for people with lesser efficiency but with heart felt devotion. Here is the list of some easy Merry Christmas songs.

  • What Child Is This
    By William Chatterton Dix (Written in 1860)

    What Child is this, who laid to rest,
    On Mary's lap is sleeping?
    Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
    While shepherds watch are keeping?
    This, this is Christ the King
    Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
    Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
    The Babe, the Son of Mary.


  • While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks ( Written by Nahum Tate in 1700AD)

    While shepherds watched their flocks by night,
    All seated on the ground,
    The angel of the Lord came down,
    And glory shone around.
    "Fear not," said he, for mighty dread
    Had seized their troubled mind,
    "Glad tidings of great joy I bring
    To you and all mankind."


  • Jingle Bells ( written and music composed by James Pierpoint in 1857)

    Jingle Bells
    Jingle Bells
    Jingle all the way
    Oh what fun it is to ride
    In a one horse open sleigh


  • The First Noel ( the words and lyrics of this song has been adopted from an English carol of 17th century)

    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.
    Noel Noel Noel Noel!
    Born is the King of Israel


  • I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day ( Henry Wadsworth Longfellow composed this song in the1860's)

    I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
    Their old familiar carols play,
    And wild and sweet the words repeat
    Of peace on earth, good will to men.

    I thought how, as the day had come,
    The belfries of all Christendom
    Had rolled along the unbroken song
    Of peace on earth, good will to men.

  • Good Christian Men, Rejoice ( This song is the creation of John Mason Neale who penned this song in the 19th century)

    Good Christian men, rejoice
    With heart and soul and voice;
    Give ye heed to what we say:
    News! News!

    Jesus Christ is born today:
    Ox and ass before him bow
    And He is in the manger now.
    Christ is born today!
    Christ is born today!
