Glory Touching Earth—Cliff Duren. Many
moments had come and gone on this Earth...
but not a single one could ever amount to this
moment: the moment when the silence was
forever broken. The moment when hope, grace,

born, laid in a manger, and wrapped in cloths.

and glory, this seamless Christmas musical
will bring your choir and congregation together
as one to celebrate the birth of our Savior. This
musically diverse work ranges from a chant of
Christmas proclamation to a touch of gospel
flair in He Reigns Forevermore, and combines

Lauren Daigle's The Light of the World and
Elevation Worship's Here Comes Heaven. This
