We will be singing this for our Communion Processional this year at a big family Christmas Eve Mass. The Satb arrangement is lovely, easy to pick up on with the well known traditional tune of Holly and the Ivy. Having a seque into Away in a Manger gives great flexibility for the song use depending on the length of communion with the larger crowds.
