Making it's second appearance here on the AoE video countdown to CHRISTmas is this very spiritual version of Carol of the Bells.
It's by 2002 Music and from the album CHRISTmas Dreams.

I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas is a Christmas novelty song written by John Rox and performed by Gayla Peevey (10 years old at the time) in 1953. The song peaked at number 24 on Billboard magazine's pop chart in December 1953. Remember, too, to have fun and build memories with your family this CHRISTmas. It's important to communicate what you want-even...
