It's hard to imagine Christmastime without the melodies that fill our homes and hearts each year with messages of peace and hope—songs that remind us to pause and gaze in wonder at the birth of Jesus.
Last week on the Great Stories podcast, Robert Morgan shared the rich history behind some of our favorite Christmas Carols. This week, David Wollen welcomes him back to share the stories behind five more songs of Christmas: Hallelujah Chorus; O Come, O Come, Emmanuel; O Little Town of Bethlehem; Go Tell it on the Mountain; and Away in the Manger.
As you prepare to celebrate the birth of our Savior this Christmas, may these stories help you fix your eyes on the God of Israel who came from heaven to earth and took on human flesh to become the Savior of the world.
