10 of those

Christmas has a special place in Christian worship. The first coming of Christ is the great revelatory event in salvation history and has always moved Christians to sing the praises of Christ. This new music book from Praise Trust aims to give Christians and churches a trusted and diverse collection of carols, advent hymns and modern songs to enrich their worship.

Within this collection you will find the essential classics as well as more traditional carols, with many modern items that are well known, along with some recent discoveries. Several items are best suited as a performance piece, with singing groups and carol services in mind, and several children’s Christmas songs are also included. 

Many items in this book are also matched by further musical content that is downloadable from the Praise Trust website, praise.org.uk.
