Words by Paul Gerhardt
Music by Johann G. Ebeling
Arranged by Vicki Tucker Courtney
This accessible setting of the traditional EBELING tune incorporates lovely harmonic lines and exchanges between SA and TB parts. A simple, two-octave handbell part adds a bright texture to the flowing arrangement. Altered harmonies bring additional warmth to this beloved carol. A unison setting is also available. Consider combining both unison and SATB settings for a multigenerational moment.
