The one I think of as the first version was the Harry Simeone Chorale performance -- and it is a lovely, lovely song. I don't know if Peg wants any of the tearjerkers on this list! The HSC Holiday album is a tradition in my family -- it links the songs together using the Christmas story, and it always reminded me of why we weren't celebrating the solstice.
Of course, now I celebrate both Christmas and the Solstice, so new traditions are born daily. Thanks for the reminder, Peg -- time to dig out the holiday music (the good stuff.)
