What's everyone's favorite old-timey Christmas "hymn" type song (less "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" more "O Come All Ye Faithful")


O Holy Night, closely followed by God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

I don't like "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" because when it goes "oh tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy" that repetition of "comfort and joy" sounds so awkward, like it's stuffing too many syllables in there

I now enjoy Xmas music enough to have a Xmassy playlist, but that's about as far as I go, once a year, whenever I feel like it.
I feel a ton of empathy for everyone working retail, it has got to be brutal working a complete shift with non-stop Xmas tunes.
