This elegant Christmas gift book features the lyrics and music of classic Christmas carols spanning hundreds of years by such composers as Handel, Mendelssohn, Gruber, and Schubert. Accompanying the songs are beautiful Medieval and Renaissance works of art by the painters who gave the Christmas story its humanity, beauty, mystery, and made it accessible to us all.

Hark! the Herald Angels Sing
We Three Kings of Orient Are
Silent Night, Holy Night
Angels We Have Heard On High
O Come, All Ye Faithful
Once in Royal David's City
What Child is This?
Angels From the Realms of Glory
O Holy Night
Joy to the World
The Friendly Beasts
O Little Town of Bethlehem
Masters in this Hall
It Came Upon the Midnight Clear
March of the Kings
While Shepherds Watched their Flocks
God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen
Away in the Manger
On Christmas Night
Ave Maria
O Come, O Come Emmanuel
The First Noel
