This full, yet gentle setting of the beloved Christmas hymn is perfect for a candlelight service or quiet concert closer. The low, rocking chords of the background choral parts are the same for all three stanzas. Interest is built by the addition of a second-stanza solo and third-stanza descants. Experiment with assigning the descants to instruments, or with supporting or replacing the lower voices with organ. SSSAA, soprano solo, and three descants a cappella; English; 4 pages; duration: 2:45 min.; range: f to f"(top descant to c'''); difficulty: easy-medium. Instrumentation: SSSAA, a cappella
