Touch but his sweat soaked leather raiments and be made whole again:
If Every Day Was Like Christmas -
If Every Day Was Like Christmas is a holiday song written by Red West, who was a close friend of Elvis Presley and also worked as his bodyguard and confidant. The song was recorded by Elvis in 1966 and became part of his Christmas album Elvis' Christmas Album, which was first released in 1957 and later reissued in various formats.
Merry Christmas Baby -
Merry Christmas Baby is a classic R&B Christmas song that was first recorded in 1947 by Johnny Moore's Three Blazers. The version recorded by the group featured Charles Brown on vocals and piano, and it became a significant hit within the R&B genre. Elvis Presley recorded a version for his 1971 album Elvis Sings the Wonderful World of Christmas.
I Believe -
I Believe is a classic song that was introduced on Jane Froman's television show in 1953, becoming the first hit song ever introduced on television. Elvis released it on his EP, Peace in the Valley in 1957
Santa Claus Is Back in Town -
Santa Claus Is Back in Town is a classic Christmas song written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller. It was recorded by Elvis Presley in 1957 for his Elvis' Christmas Album, which went on to become the best-selling Christmas/holiday album of all time in the United States.
Oh Little Town of Bethlehem -
On Christmas Eve 1865, a young minister stood on the hill overlooking Bethlehem where the shepherds had watched their flocks on the night Jesus was born. The impression of that starry night never left Phillips Brooks. Three years later he was asked to write a hymn for the children of his Philadelphia parish for their Christmas service. The words "O Little Town Of Bethlehem" were already in his mind. Brooks' church organist, Lewis Redner, set the words to music, declaring that the tune was "a gift from heaven." Brooks became an outstanding preacher and possibly the most highly esteemed American clergyman of his day.
Christmas Duets -
If you find yourself all tingly in your bulbous naughty bits;
you're listening to Elvis; he understands.
