Christmas Song Countdown - #11 Carol of the Bells

One of the most recognizable songs at Christmastime is 'Carol of the Bells".  There are versions that are bells ringing, versions played by piano or pianos, bands and orchestras.  I've heard some beautiful vocal arrangements, and after hearing the local high schools perform at our church a couple of weeks back, I was going to post a vocal version of this beautiful song.  However, in searching for a good version on YouTube, I came across this handbell version.  It is quite impressive.  Despite its homemade video quality, the audio comes across nicely.

"Carol of the Bells" is one of those songs that reminds me of the beauty of Christmas.  Whether its the decorations, areas that get snow this time of year, or the beauty in that God loved us so much that He became Man for us so that we can one day have a relationship and peace with Him.  When you think about what God did for us that first Christmas night, it is a beautiful thought.

I hope you are enjoying this Christmastime and that you are drawing closer to God during this time.
