Alle Jahre wieder (English: Every Year Again) is a well known Christmas carol, written in 1837 by Johann Wilhelm Hey (1789–1854) and set to music by Friedrich Silcher. The last two verses are omitted from many editions. The German composers Ernst Anschütz and Christian Heinrich Rinck also set these words to music.
The name of the song was used for the title of the 1967 film Alle Jahre wieder by Ulrich Schamoni.
