Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas was written by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane in 1944 for the film Meet Me in St. Louis, where Judy Garland first sang it. Its tender, hopeful message of togetherness at Christmas has made it one of the most beloved holiday standards ever written.

Its gentle melody is a lovely one to sing softly, and our Love to Sing choir keeps that warm, wistful feeling. It's a favorite for Christmas concerts, school performances and quiet moments together at home.
