Hi Cherry - my all-time favorite Christmas carol is "Silent Night". Even as a little girl, singing it brought a special reverent feeling to my heart.

If you get a chance sometime, I think you might enjoy a 2012 TV movie "Silent Night." It's the story of how Josef Mohr, an Austrian priest, wrote "Silent Night." I watch it through my ROKU on the BYU TV channel. If you don't have ROKU, you can go to BYUTVdotorg on your computer and watch it. It's about 90 minutes long. Once you get on BYUTV, click on "shows" and scroll down til you find it. At the end of the movie he sings "Silent Night" along with some other people to his small congregation. During the credits it said that Josef Mohr died in 1848, a poor country priest, unaware of the worldwide success and impact of "Silent Night."

A German flavored, tourist destination ,in my state ,built a replica of the little chapel for people to enjoy. It is a tiny little church just a cute as can be.
