Tis’ the season to spread faith and rejoice, for Christmas is the day Jesus was born. And what better way to celebrate the life of our savior than to join family and friends for Christmas caroling. It’s an old Christmas tradition that started in Europe thousands of years ago. Early Christians came together to spread Christmas spirit around town, singing songs about the story of Jesus and Mary.

Today, the joyous tradition continues for Christians all around the world. In countries like England, Poland and Romania, carolers take part in their own version of Christmas caroling known as “wassailing,” where groups of singers travel from house to house, humming carols in exchange for gifts, wine and monetary donations for charity. It’s a universal sign of unity and peace for all, and a great way to celebrate His life. So, as you gather with your family this Christmas, spread some cheer around your neighborhood. We’ve put together a list of classics to get you warmed up and on your merry way:
