This song, being the title of a Christmas music in which it was featured comes from the creative team of Randy Vader and Jay Rouse. With poetic, thoughtful text centers around the timing of Christ’s arrival. A rhythmic percussive groove highlights the mysterious and stirring melody. The bridge of the song features a melody based on the “gloria” passage from Angels We Have Heard on High with rhythmic and melodic changes that accentuate the compelling style of this song.
