I was wondering what your favourite carol would be and why. I love O come all ye faithful particularly the verse
God of God
Light of Lights
Lo he abhors not the virgins womb
Very God
Begotten not created
I find it a shame that some modern version omit this verse yet you have Christology summed up in 5 lines and sung in 20 seconds or so.
I also like Charles Wesley's Hark the Herald Angels Sing and the verse
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
Hail the incarnate deity
Pleased as man, with man to dwell
Jesus our Immanuel.
It would remind you of John's prologue of the Word becoming flesh and dwelling amongst us.
