Christmas Festival
Written for mixed voices, SATB, children's choir, keyboard accompaniment, optional handbells and C-instrument, this anthem introduces an original tune while the familiar "I Saw Three Ships Come Sailing In" melody occasionally appears. The text begins, "Bells are ringing, Angels singing, Telling of the Savior's holy birth. All rejoicing, Carols voicing, Glory in the highest, Peace on earth!" It is written in G-flat Major with the bell part printed above the voice part.
