I found this today when I was looking for another prayer in Gregorian chant form (I've temporarily forgotten its name) and this enchanted me

Oh the beauty of simplicity

Hail Queen of Heaven

Maybe a tad Christmassy...

Here's a few I find very moving:

Delirious - I could sing of your love forever
Very popular modern song

KLF - Justified and Ancient
Techno beats meets great choir arrangement featuring the late Tammy Wynette.

P.O.D. - Alive
It's heavy metal, but give it a chance, I think it will surprise you.

Ofra Haza - Im Nin'Alu
Yemenite Traditional with modern instrumental arrangement.

The Venice Four with Rose Stone and the Abbot Kinney Lighthouse Choir -
Shine on Me & Troubles of this world
From the film "The Ladykillers" by the Cohen brothers.

Down in the river to pray
Again from the Cohen brothers from their film "O brother where are thou?"

Superchick - Pure
Catchy pop song

I'm a new user so apparently I can't post links or videos but one of my favourite worship songs- and a powerful declaration faith-

In Christ Alone

No storm can shake my inmost calm while to that rock I'm clinging
Since Love is Lord of Heaven and Earth
How can I keep from singing.

Technically, I'm a day early... but with everything going on tomorrow I thought I'd post this now, in case I'll forget otherwise

Prepare the way, O Zion!
Ye awful deeps, rise high;
Sink low, ye towering mountains,
The Lord is drawing nigh;
The righteous King of glory,
Foretold in sacred story.

Refrain

O blest is He that came
In God the Father’s name.

O Zion, He approacheth,
Thy Lord and king for aye!
Strew palms where He advanceth,
Spread garments in His way.
God’s promise faileth never,
Hosanna sound forever!

Fling wide thy portals, Zion
And hail thy glorious king;
His tidings of salvation
To every people bring,
Who, waiting yet in sadness,
Would sing His praise in gladness.

According to the gospels in the Bible this happened right before Easter and is therefore celebrated on Palm Sunday, but traditionally also first Advent Sunday

Translated from Swedish wikipedia in order to give some context

Happy first Advent Sunday tomorrow!!
