Silent Night
Note that White Christmas is not a carol - it's a song from a show

180 years ago the carol "Stille Nacht! Heilige Nacht" was heard for the first time in a village church in Oberndorf, Austria. The congregation at that Midnight Mass in St. Nicholas Church listened as the voices of the assistant pastor, Fr. Joseph Mohr, and the choir director, Franz Xaver Gruber, rang through the church to the accompaniment of Fr. Mohr's guitar. On each of the six verses, the choir repeated the last two lines in four-part harmony.On Christmas eve 1818 in a small village church (St. Nicholas' Church) of Oberndorf in the Austrian Alps, 26-year old assistant pastor, Joseph Mohr, wanted to have a special service to honor his Lord. Thus, he got together with the church organist and teacher, Franz Gruber, to create a special new song for guitar and voices, Stille Nacht! Hilige Nacht! Twelve years later it was performed by a full choir before Emperor Frederick William IV in the Imperial Church in Berlin, establishing it nationally as a classical hymn for all time.
It has since been translated into more than seventy languages around the world and has become the most famous carol of all. Silent Night Holy Night

It is most likely one to do with when Jesus was born, as Christmas was made to celebrate his birth. My guess is 'Silent Night,' but try looking it up with a search engine.
