The flowing reharmonization of this beloved carol helps the listener feel the profound emotion and wonder that must have filled the air that first Christmas night. This moving arrangement culminates with a joyous modulation to the last verse where the congregation may join in singing; almost like the choirs of angels singing in joyous worship of the newborn Christ-child. The arrangement ends as it began...in tender awe of what happened on that blessed holy night.
