God Will Give Orders/Sweet Child (from
"Snow Angel")—Sarah Quartel. Beginning
with a mystical, ethereal feel with a haunting
optional cello line, this piece opens with lyrical
choral lines singing over a baby and promising
heavenly protection and care. The mood then
shifts to a celebratory and rhythmic feel with
djembe, and eventually a quieter a cappella
refrain closes with the choir affirming the
promise: "Sweet child, you're the future...
Sweet child, I will show you how to love."

The Hands that First Held Mary's Child—
Dan Forrest. An incredible text tells the
extraordinary story of a Child, whose journey
begins in Bethlehem, with the weathered
hands of a carpenter holding his newborn
son. "The hands that first held Mary's child
were hard from working wood. From boards
they sawed and planed and filed and splinters
they withstood. This day they gripped no tool
of steel, they drove no iron nail, but cradled
from the head to heel our Lord, newborn
and frail."
