Published by Trinity Music Press (A0.1286210). A heartful scripture-based Christmas carol for SATB voices + piano accompaniment. The gentle introduction in the females voices is followed by various contrasting voicings which lead to the climatic final verse with a soaring descant.  In a cold and lonesome stable where Jesus was bornThe gentle mother, Mary, cradled her child that Christmas mornThough he lay within a manger, though his head rested on hayHe, the king, foretold by prophets, was born that wondrous day.Angels in the skies above him proclaimed their sweet song“All praise and honour to the Christ-child”, acclaimed the heavenly throng“Peace  on earth, goodwill to all men, glory to the new-born king,Jesus, saviour, our redeemer, glad tidings now we bring.” Wise men from the East, they journeyed, they came from afarThey did the evil Herod’s bidding and followed the bright starOn they travelled to the stable where they kneeled and hommage paidGold and frankincense and myhrr, their gifts before him laid.Weary shepherds on the hillsides their flocks watched by nightAn angel then appeared before them, a blinding, fearsome sight“Do not fear”,the angel told them, “go to Bethlehem and see Born this night in David’s city, the Lord, Messiah, he”. Praise be to the the frightened shepherds who left flocks at nightAnd praise be to the travelling wise men who followed the bright lightPraise be to the heavenly angels, singing of the saviour’s  birthAnd praise be to our Lord, Jesus, who brought peace on earth.    This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard’s global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
