Holy Light

"Holy Light" is a complete worship service containing scripture readings and twelve carols. "Holy Light" was originally conceived as a candle-lighting service (not congregationally as in "Silent Night," but on the altar or in various locations in the Chancel.) Whether or not this concept is utilized, you will find this collection takes a new look at some well known carols.

The carols included are:
