Do You Hear What I Hear?

I've got a couple of Christmas CDs, but I'd like to expand my collection to help me really get into the holiday spirit. Most of the Christmas songs I have are more of a secular nature ("Here Comes Santa Claus," "Rockin Around the Christmas Tree", etc.).

I want to add more "religious" Christmas songs to my collection. Any recommendations on a good Christmas album, or individual songs/performances, that I should consider?

I've got a Sandi Patti cd at the office that I like... I can't remember the name of it right now.

that's the greatness of i-Tunes. search and buy what you want instead of buying an entire CD for 2 songs.

One of my favorite Christmas albums is from 4HIM called the "Christmas - The Season of Love." It's about six or seven years old but has become one of my favorites! It has several "traditional" Christmas songs but also some non-traditional songs, like "Strange Way to Save the World." And, if you're into pop music, BJ Thomas (Rain Drops Keep Falling on My Head) recorded a sacred Christmas album called "Christmas is Coming Home" that has a song called "Be It Unto Me" that I love. It uses the words of Mary when she was told she was with child. Of course there's always Handel's Messiah, too. If you find others, I'd like to know to.
