What Christmas music are you enjoying this year? Advent Songs, which highlights original and traditional Christmas songs from Sojourn artists, including Jamie Barnes, Dirt Poor Robins, Brooks Ritter, and more, has me in the right Christmas frame of mind this year.
The emphasis of this project is on the already/ not-yet tension of Advent, the season of waiting and anticipation before Christmas. Advent comes to us in the darkest season of the year — a season when the nights are long, the days are cold, and we look with anticipation for the return of the warmth in the spring. These songs have both a dark sense of anticipation and glimpses of light dawning in the face of the Christ child.
If you're looking for something to help you focus your eyes upon the remembrance of the birth of King Jesus, I would highly recommend Advent Songs - and you can get it for free if you're willing to tell five friends about this CD! Check it out.
* You can get the chord sheets here if you're interested in that sort of thing.
