The Carpenters - Merry Christmas Darling. Religious-based, I'd have to go with Hark the Herald Angels Sing.

Excellent song. I also really enjoy "In the Bleak Midwinter".

Mine too.

A few years ago my church hired a professional tenor to solo this at the Christmas Eve service during the candle lighting. Just thinking about it now brings me goosebumps and makes my eyes well up.

I like Coventry Carol, which isn't even about Christmas, but it has a haunting melody and is very old.

After working for over40 years in retail I don’t care for any Christmas music, I don’t hate it but after hearing them over and over for years they just don’t float my boat.

I'd have to say my favorite is Es ist ein Ros entsprungen (Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming). Not a carol, but very fond of the Christmas portion of the Messiah, especially the choruses such as "Unto Us A Child is Born".

I like both the Kenny Rogers and Pentatonix versions. I love the lyrics.

It is technically an Advent hymn, but I won't split hairs.
This.

It’s from the O Antiphons, which are sung the 7 days prior to Christmas. Just love it.
