Top 50 #208: Christmas 2007

Chart At A Glance
- MercyMe is still on top with “What Child Is This?”, but that’s the only song that remains in the same spot from last year
- “We Three Kings” makes the biggest jump of any song, moving up from #24 to #4
- Almost 20 songs appear for their first time this year
- Note: Rank comparisons between now and last year are for song titles only. Meaning, if I favor a different artist’s version of a song this year than I did last year, the song still counts as having ranked last year
- Another note: I only chart 1 version of a song in this Top 50; any listed alternate versions following the main song titles are songs that I would likely rank if I allowed multiple versions
