The song, "Silent Night/Stille Nacht" is the song most associated with the December 1914 Christmas Truces. However, there were many instances of truce along the Western Front, and a wide variety of hymns were sung. One participant stated that "O Come All Ye Faithful" was the hymn which started both sides singing together in his area. Other songs were "God Save the King", "Deutschland Uber Alles", and "It's a Long Way To Tipperary".
