heart, this text is a prayer inspired by a conviction

accompaniment supports and provides artistic
grounding for this beautiful original anthem that

From the first notes of solo introduction, this lush
and lovely lullaby grants us access to the stable
scene on that first Christmas night. Text from the

Dengler. This compelling anthem combines the
tender beauty of the Nativity story with the age old
grandeur of the Sanctus text. The music weds the
simplicity of the stable in Bethlehem to a deeply
worshipful exaltation of the promised Savior. It
builds in intensity through the final refrain, with
an optional soprano descant which enhances its
brilliance and then ends with an intimate, quiet
final statement reflecting the awe felt by all who
experience Christ's presence on earth.

lt Cold By His Cradle the Dew Drops Are
Shining—Brandon Homayouni. There is a pristine
loveliness in this original setting of a classic
Reginald Heber Christmas/Epiphany text. With

4L 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.

you for it and so will all who hear it!

l Do You Hear What I Hear—Noel Regney and
Gloria Shayne/arr. Robert Sterling. Written in 1962

classic is a "plea for peace" and an affectionate
portrait of the spirit of Christmas. The arranger
brings a sense of cinematic scope and theatrical
flair to this fully orchestrated version using children's

significant and fulfilling. A new classic!
