Now it can be totally Christian. Audrey Assad sings “Winter Snow” for Chris Tomlin, making the storm the metaphor for the First Coming. Deconstruct that, English majors!

Rhymecast goes childish with “Do You Want to Play in the Snow?” Frankly i’m scared of these children and these lyrics. No thank you.
Just as unfortunate, English teaching through songs from Turn On Your English results in “In the Snow.” Fluent Englishers may have trouble with the understanding of it here now.

Kid Pan Alley jollies up “Snow Angels and Icicles” so much so i have to ask, is this for kids or just her? The scat, too?
I mean grown ups singing simply might be rhyme-splaining or there they go educating children. Listen to the guileless Daisy May Erlewine’s “Snow Angel” and tell me the difference.
