Usually I don’t appreciate additions to existing hymns, but David Phelps adds something more than appropriate in the middle of this wonderful rendition of Joy To The World. Merry Christmas.

It’s amazing how quick these twenty-five songs go by each year. It’s also amazing how quick each year is coming around. Gabriel’s Message is becoming a recurring visitor to this annual collection. Here’s a rendition by The Good Shepherd Band.
Here’s the final weekly Advent/Christmas song by the Orchardist. This time it’s Psalm 126. “Those who sow with tears reap songs of joy”
Buddy Greene’s rendition of the Canticle Of The Turning has a great folk feel that suits the background of the melody well. I’ve sung the hymn I Heard The Voice Of Jesus Say to this tune, but I haven’t used this hymn (yet). The lyrics evoke the Advent season’s sense of anticipation.
