Voicing: SATB
Words by Paul and Martha Puckett
Music by Martha Puckett and Michael W. Smith
Arranged by Ruth Elaine Schram
This haunting, simple melody, co-written and recorded by Michael W. Smith, is a perfect fit for the arranging gifts of Ruth Elaine Schram. The gospel-focused text, so simple even a child can sing and understand, is as beautiful as the melody that presents it. This SATB seting is signature Schram, as she gives line and movement to the inner voices ina way that creates both tension and interest. The optional instrumental accompaniment is luch and supportive, but in keeping with the simplicity of the vocal importance of the anthem. Your choid will thank you for the opportunity to "Carols Sing!"
