I love "Here Comes Heaven" by Elevation Worship. I don't think it's really classified as a Christmas song, but it certainly fits!
One of my favorite Christmas albums is A Christmas Cornucopia by Annie Lennox. She is not a Christian, but recorded this collection of old carols because she thinks there might be some universal truth in them. She did a lot of new orchestration and arrangement that give the album a sense of mystery and wonder.
I have included several songs from her album on a list of favorites I made on Spotify - link here.
O Day of Peace - Josh Garrells
Behold the Lamb of God - Andrew Peterson
Carol - First Call
I heard "Mary Did you Know" by Scotty McCreery this morning on my way in to work. So beautiful.
"Winter Snow" by Audrey Assad touches my heart each time I hear it.
O Holy Night
O Come O Come Emmanuel
Silent Night

Light of the World (Point of Grace w/ Michael Tait as featured soloist)

My favorite Christmas CD is The Wonder and Warmth of Christmas with Paul Sandberg. I especially like the song "How Should a King Come?" and another called "This Christmas."
I have always loved "Once in Royal David's City" --easy to sing and a beautiful message.
