Matériel : Vocal Score
Uses: Christmas CommunionScripture: Luke 2:8-9; I Corinthians 11:23-29At the plaintive strains of Silent Night this sensitively designed anthem of reflection rises like a prayer to call thechurch to the grace of God's table. Surrounded by tender music this song delivers candlelit sonorities and cloistered chords to match the contemplative nature of the text. As the final verse issues a challenge for us to take thegift to the world an effective crescendo raises the call before allowing the anthem to end in peaceful calm as it began. Violin (or C-instrument) part included. Duration: ca. 4:16.

Bringing the various services of the season into community, this work provides for two distinct endings for optimal programming flexibility.
