Based upon the popular seventeenth-century carol "Pat-a-Pan," this exciting arrangement by Mary McDonald tells the story of the shepherds who, awakened by an angel in brilliant starlight, run to Bethlehem to see the Child who is born the "Lamb for all mankind." Easy to prepare and sing, it has several equally effective accompaniment options. (From the cantata "Celebrate His Name! Proclaim His Birth!," SATB--65/2032L; SAB--65/2033L).
