Grab a cup of hot cocoa, sit back, and relax as we present 10 Cozy Choral Favorites for Christmas! This lovely selection of songs offers an opportunity for the entire family to slow down and reflect on the birth of our dear Savior as we worship in the Christmas season. These calm and comforting songs include some of our favorite individual Christmas pieces and a few medleys as well. Musically on the mellower side of things, these songs are a bit softer and contemplative, and they're an absolutely perfect addition to your Christmas worship services!

Beautifully arranged by Ed Kee, Phillip Keveren, Russell Mauldin, Jeff Lippencott, and others, these cozy Christmas favorites range from easy to difficult, and are well suited for both traditional and contemporary worship settings. We hope you'll enjoy these wonderful selections and consider them as you plan and prepare music for your Christmas worship services!
