Contested PROD. WP:GNG. WP:NSONG Not a charting song. No awards won. That it has been recorded by several notable bands is unsourced. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:26, 21 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: no secondary sources and not covered. –eggofreason^talk 01:57, 21 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - There is indeed evidence that the song exists, but existence does not prove notability. Sources about the song itself are generally routine listings from its publisher and sheet music providers. I also found some links to recorded versions by the various musicians listed in the article's final sentence, but all are also routine listings of performances that are themselves non-notable. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 18:51, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete We can't create articles on just every song. Abhi88iisc (talk) 18:22, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The song has become increasingly common in Christmas services in recent years. The fact that it is not "charted" among the pop tunes is irrelevant. Rwflammang (talk) 15:29, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Is there any significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject that it has "become increasingly common in Christmas services in recent years"? Walter Görlitz (talk) 19:10, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom for failing notability guidelines at WP:NSONG. Ifnord (talk) 02:30, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
