A Chance to Win

I love winning things or getting anything for free. My friend Meredith's husband is giving away a copy of his new book about Advent (which I haven't read yet, but I'm sure is wonderful), and all you have to do is post a comment on his blog about your favorite Christmas song. So easy and so fun!

Here's what I said, and I hope you'll take the time to contribute, too! (But I really want to win the book.)

1) O Come, O Come Emmanuel - I love the word "ransom" in connection with Christmas. He really is our rescuer in every sense of the word! 2) A choral song I learned in high school called Baby, What You Goin' to Be? I found a choir singing it on YouTube so here's the link, and you can judge for yourself! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnPxBpYY5z0

I love that song also!

My favorites (I actually have two) are:

Hark the Herald Angels Sing--the line about God and sinners reconciled brings me to tears every time I hear/sing it.

and

Welcome to Our World by Chris Rice.

Beautiful! I hope you win. I told John he should enter your name twice since you linked to his giveaway!
