A picture may be worth a thousand words, but a good piece of music goes beyond the ability of words to express, whether one or a thousand.
It’s the Christmas season, a time when many of us in the world are commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ, Savior of the world. In my mind Christmas carols are among the most beautiful music of all time. Though I shudder at many of the “modernizations” foisted upon us on the radio, there are some performances that are truly magnificent, and come close to conveying the wonder and majesty of the Creator of the world coming to earth as a helpless infant to one day sacrifice Himself to free all those who will from the chains of sin.

Love me my Christmas music. Inappropriate though it would be, that is what I want played at my funeral. It is the music that I love best.
Seems to me it would be more appropriate than a good many things that do get played at funerals.
