Sparkling with the artistry of its composer/arranger, Mark Hayes, Nativity is the perfect choice for incorporation into Christmas worship or a Service of Lessons and Carols. The quiet, prayerful opening medley showcases “Away in a Manger” with three different traditional carols. Next, a marvelous blend of carols spreads the good news of Christ’s birth, culminating with “Bring a Torch, Jeanette, Isabella”. The regal pastoral closing includes “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear” and “The First Noel”. You may, if you wish, choose to use narrators, a children’s choir, soloists, and include congregational singing. Approximately 13 minutes in length.
