The 7 Best Original (Modern) Christmas Songs

Merry Christmas!

A friend of mine recently texted that a video I sent him had very little to do with Christmas. I responded with:

“christmas has very little to with Christmas.”

Well, these post and these songs have everything to do with Christmas, the real Christmas. It takes a lot of talent, skill, and hard work to make a good song. It takes even more to make a good Christmas song. So much so, very few people have done this. But look no further, these are some of the best worship songs I’ve ever heard. Most are performed by their composers. There won’t be much commentary on this one, just some great music. Have some time to listen to words, get lost in their meaning, and reflect.
