The home page for this site is at this url: http://www.ingeb.org/home.html From there, if you're looking for songs in a particular language, click on the language you want in the list of countries and languages near the top of the page. This will take you to a page with a list of all the titles for which they have the lyrics posted in that language.

Do not click on any links to take you to another page - just scan down the list until you find a song you're interested in and click on the title. Sometimes the Latin text is below the text in another language and you have to scroll down to see it, and sometimes it's printed in the right-hand column, but every title listed on this page *should* have Latin lyrics. The very first item on the list is an article on Latin Christmas songs - but unfortunately it's written in German, and I don't know enough to translate it. :(

Jennifer,

Well, I had a little more success this time, but that address proves to be a real time sink. I found all the words to some of my favorite songs and had to sit there and sing them all. <g>

Thanks.

Eva
