l Hear the Choirs of Angels Sing—Gary Daigle.
This is an enchanting song for Christmas; it is very
versatile and can be sung by choirs of any size or
age range (your children's choir will imbue your
congregation with unbridled joy!) The call and
response of the verses and repetitive nature of the
refrain allow instant participation. Opportunities for
several soloists or small groups.

lL Immanuel Draws Near—Katie Houts. O Come, O
Come, Immanuel receives a refreshing text update
by Rev. Barbara K. Lundblad and a new melody
by Katie Houts. Mysterious, yet filled with intent
and with hope, this poignant Advent anthem can
be sung by a unison choir or a multigenerational
two-part choir. A simple antiphonal section evokes
the prophet's message passing from generation to
generation, leading to a powerful climax: "Revenge
and hatred put to flight! Rejoice, rejoice! Take heart
and do not fear: God's chosen one, Immanuel,
draws near."

& Kristyn Getty. This charming carol by Keith and
Kristyn Getty pairs a simple but engaging melody

way to begin the church year with your children's
choir or small adult choir. This trilogy includes

of Christ, a Christmas piece celebrating the birth
of the promised Savior, and an Epiphany round
compelling all to share Christ's light with the
world. Each anthem includes parts for four or five
handbells or handchimes.

Ellen Loose. This gently rocking lullaby incorporates
a charmingly beautiful melodic and harmonic idea
