Description
Composed in both traditional and blended choral stylings, this cantata weaves the historic symbolism of both the Lion of Judah and the Lamb of God into the Christmas story. Through original songs and traditional carols, singers and listeners are reminded that this story is not just an event in history, but a “living story” that still impacts the world today. Narration, solos, congregational participation and optional children’s voices, along with gorgeous orchestrations by Keith Christopher, all work together to make this service a time of both celebration and worship.
Songs include: Overture/Sing Christmas!; And So We Wait; It Came upon a Midnight Clear; Who’s the Little Baby?; Sleep Little Lion, Sleep Little Lamb; Where Is Peace Tonight?; In This Moment; Angels from the Realms of Glory; Carol of the King.
