ADULT CHOIR
CHRISTMAS ANTHEMS
Cradle Lullaby
Jonathan Reid.
An endearing piece for Christmas from the pen of Jonathan Reid. Rising and
falling vocal phrases are supported by a sensitive piano accompaniment, and
an impressive ending showcases the full range of a mixed choir. The tender
text draws comparisons to the infant Jesus and represents a mother's prayer
that her own child may grow to love and serve the Lord.

Ecce Ancilla
from Magnificat
Michael John Trotta.

be done to me according to your will." A translation allows this work to be
performed in Latin or English.

moments: "Hail that ever blessed morn, hail redemption's happy dawn. Sing
through all Jerusalem: Christ is born in Bethlehem." The addition of a C
instrument enhances the overall effect.

Break Forth, O Beauteous Heavenly Light
Larry Shackley.
This Christmas title is well-known for its use in J.S. Bach's Christmas Oratorio.
Hymn writer Fred Pratt Green has added two contemporary stanzas which
brings the meaning into our lives today, with words such as: "Come, dearest
child, into our hearts, and leave your crib behind you! Let this be where the
new life starts for all who seek and find you." The original music soars in
melodic line and grandeur. Useful for Christmas and the season of Epiphany,
calling to break forth, O heavenly light!

arr. Adam Podd.

and everyone joins in for the exuberant refrains. A final repeated chorus stacks
voice parts to take the rockin' arrangement over the top! Add the fantastic track
for that traditional gospel sound.
