This list is only meant as a beginning; other lists include the Indexes at The Hymns and Carols of Christmas and The Cyber Hymnal™. Songs not originally in English are listed by common English translation when one is known, with the original language indicated by parenthetical abbreviation following (e.g. (la) = Latin, (de) = German, etc.). [A] indicates an Advent song, [E] an Epiphany song, etc. [S] indicates a secular, pagan or irreligious song; [P] indicates a parody. Common titles that differ from the incipits are given in some cases.
