I used to wonder why certain songs became known as "Christmas songs" when they don't seem to have anything to do with Christmas. Some have been around forever and are just a long-standing tradition, like "Sleigh Ride" and "Winter Wonderland". But some, like "My Favorite Things" don't seem to belong IMO. I think this is due to Jewish singers wanting to pad out their albums so they can leave off the songs about Christ (Neil Diamond is an exception with several overtly Christian songs on his album).
My take on it:
here’s a lot of truth in the observation that “The most important part of Christmas is the first six letters.”
Amen!
But speaking as a Catholic, we not only keep “Christ” in Christmas, we also keep the “Mass” in Christmas.
Come to Mass on Christmas. Christ welcomes you!
