The Christmas/Holiday season can be fun or stressful, depending on who you ask.
I know of several songs that I hope can be a blessing and to enjoy during the Christmas/Holiday season. Or all year if you like.
I celebrate Jesus Christ all year round. Although in each season we tend to celebrate specific aspects of him.
Winter: Christmas for the birth of Jesus.
Check the links list below.
Spring: Good Friday + Resurrection Sunday his death and resurrection.
A good song to celebrate being made alive through Christ is LitaRodi Alive In Christ
Summer: I guess Fathers day you can celebrate our heavenly Father God.
I love jamming the Humble Tip SPF song ft DMaub and KDrama during the summer.
Fall: All Saints Day. Thanksgiving (praise and rejoice, thank God for blessings).
Soldiers On A Mission Super Thankful ft Von Won is a great song for that.

Side Tangent: If Christmas or the holiday season is stressful, it doesn't have to be. It's a time where you should have peace and joy. Some people over burden themselves, but we should remember the words of Jesus Christ in Matthew 6, to seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness. He also comforts us with the truth that we should not worry but rather trust he will give and provide what we need.
Romans 14:17 says the kingdom of God is peace, joy, and righteousness. It's important to set healthy boundaries, and know our limits with what we can or can't do by ourselves. If it's too much a burden to decorate, put lights up, cook, and all that. Don't. Or do less than all that extra stuff. Keep things simple and basic. Feel free to have lower budget Christmas. $10 or $5 or $1-3 gifts. Free yourself, and don't make yourself a slave to pleasing other people.
We should remember the Nativity scene and remember why we even celebrate Christmas, Look and find the true meaning of Christmas, Emmanuel (God with us) who came and was born as fully God and fully man at the same time through a virgin named Mary, Jesus came with the purpose knowing that he would have to die for our sins, Christ the Messiah, the, Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.
Salvation through Jesus Christ is a gift for all to accept. Because all have sinned, and need salvation. Regardless of if you are Jew, Muslim, Atheist, Buddhist, ect. God wants us to leave our old life of false religions and accept his son. The moment you leave your old life and turn your back on the world and sin, you will be at odds with the world, marked as an enemy, because the world wants to be comfortable staying lost in sin and blind to truth, the truth hurts, the truth convicts and doesn't feel good because it sets an ultimatum where you choose to repent and be saved or don't and stay damned.
Christianity and Christmas is not just for those already in the "Christian religion" or being for the Christians only (God would rather you actually know him than to just play the "I go to church" game and be a "Christian" in name only... check Matthew 7:21), but for all man kind to forsake false/godless religion and idolatry, and to accept the payment Christ made for sin with his death on the cross in order for whosoever believes in him to be saved, born again, and have a transformed spirit that is no longer dead but alive in Christ as a new creation.
God wants a relationship with us, where his Holy Spirit indwells us, not where he's some distant deity, he isn't the universe itself. He's the creator of the universe. New Agers tend to see the universe as God. That is Pantheism and collective consciousness (Some call it Christ Consciousness), they believe in manifesting things into existence, speak it to be, name it and claim it, law of attraction, (basically stuff from the book called The Secret). God is not a genie. We don't manipulate him to get what we want. We pray and ask, and it can be yes, no, or wait. He is God and we are not. He is Lord. And God the Father knows best.
