歡慶的季節Celebrate The Season
聆聽音中傳遞的聖誕信息普騰！The Christmas message in music
救主下降。
大地接她君王！
對許多人來說，歡唱聖誕歌曲是聖誕節的寶貴傳統，從像〈白色聖誕〉這樣廣受大眾喜愛的抒情金曲到面壯觀的〈哈利路亞〉都屬於聖誕歌曲的範疇。
很多人珍愛耳熟能詳的聖誕頌歌；經過了個世紀，許多美妙章為了慶祝耶穌降生這個改變全世界的大事而陸續被創作出來。
這些讃美詩引領聽眾踏上認識耶穌的旅程，經歷這個神賜給世人的禮物！
舉例來說，廣受喜愛的經典歌曲〈平安夜〉，帶領我們來到耶穌降生的場景。
我們看到瑪利亞凝視著熟睡的孩子。
忽然間，天使出現，並向曠野中的一群牧羊人宣告救世主基督已經隆生！
我們慶祝耶穌降生，是因為耶穌是上帝賜予世人的禮物，能為每個人帶來愛、和平和寬恕。
耶穌降生之前，人們都是透過遵守律法來取悅上帝，結果根本行不通。
耶穌的降生迎來了一個愛與恩典的嶄新紀元。
"Joy to the world! The Lord is come. Let Earth receive her King!"
For many people, singing Christmas music is a precious tradition of the holiday season. Christmas music ranges from sentimental favorites like "White Christmas" to the spectacular "Hallelujah Chorus."
Many people cherish the familiar carols of the Christmas season. Down through the ages, many beautiful pieces of music have been written to celebrate this world-changing event of Jesus' birth. These hymns take listeners on a journey to meet Jesus, God's gift to the world!
For instance, the beloved classic "Silent Night, Holy Night," takes us to the scene of the birth of the baby Jesus. We see Mary gazing at her sleeping child. Suddenly, angels appear and announce to a group of shepherds in a field that Christ the Savior has been born! We celebrate this event because Jesus is God's gift to the world and offers love, peace and forgiveness to everyone. Before this occurrence, people tried to please God by obeying religious laws, but it was impossible. Jesus' life ushered in a whole new age of love and grace.

And I love O Holy Night because it shows the grandeur, the glory of that first night when the angels came down to the shepherds and announced that the Savior was born.
So I think there's no other song that can show the glory and the grandeur of Christmas night as well as this carol.
So that is definitely my favorite Christmas carol.
It announces the meaning of Christmas that the King has come and is born, Christ
