NEW-TO-US SONGS?

Continuing with our Christmastide resource HERE, several new-to-us songs may have surfaced during the time period.

Show of hands, how many knew these songs…

  • Jesus Christ, The Apple Tree? Listed for New Years Day, it’s a good message for those of us looking at the year past and thinking about our souls being more “with Jesus Christ.” Searching YouTube for this song brought the beautiful version HERE, including a creative finish
  • Huron Carol? History on the song is HERE, with musical efforts in English HERE and in Huron language HERE

These songs are now on the YouTube playlist of Christian Playbook – Christmas music. And, of course, they can be listened to all-year-long right HERE! 🙂 

May these songs and so many of the season continue to move us through this Christmastide and in the years ahead…

Enjoy the day, filled with the Spirit!



Wise men are getting closer…
