“Night of Wonder, Night of Joy” is a worship service that celebrates the wondrous miracles surrounding the birth of our Savior. The story begins with Mary and Joseph traveling to Bethlehem, finding shelter behind the inn as they prepare for Jesus’ birth. The scene then shifts to generations earlier, when the Israelites were enslaved and expectantly looked forward to the coming of a King to free them, the fulfillment of ancient prophecy. The first Christmas scene returns as the service concludes with a celebration of the wonder and joy of God’s special gift to us: a Savior, Jesus Christ. The narration may be presented simply, by readers, or dramatically, with characters in costume pantomiming the events as the story unfolds. Inspired by these miraculous events, Niel Lorenz and Ruth Elaine Schram have combined their great talents to create a dramatic musical experience that is certain to fill the hearts of all believers with a sense of wonder and joy in God’s goodness.

We are always price conscious and understand the financial burdens placed on piano teachers, students and performers to continue to grow their own personal music library. With this in mind, we decided to publish a series of 2 in 1 Christmas sheets arranged in a piano vocal (PVG) format that has only the specific title(s) that you are interested in buying this holiday season. Rather than purchase a large costly collection of songs that you may or may not have an opportunity to perform this year, we have provided an inexpensive alternative. For just $4.95, you can buy just those one or two songs you truly want. That's two songs for the price of one! Each arrangement is derived from Santorella Publications' best-selling Piano Vocal Christmas songbook, The Best Of Christmas * Piano Vocal Edition by Jonathon Robbins which is also available with or without a performance CD. If cost is not an issue and you'd like to purchase this fantastic collection, be our guest, but if a big songbook is just not in the Christmas budget this year, now you can buy only those titles you've settled on for your holiday performance. Here's your chance to learn Joy To The World and O Come All Ye Faithful. Please be sure to review our entire list of Christmas song titles available. Every piano vocal (PVG) arrangement includes lyrics and chord box diagrams for guitar so everyone can sing along. Merry Christmas from Santorella Publications!

The age-old story of our Lord’s birth, retold each year around the world, is made more real and more deeply felt when experienced through the beloved carols of this season of joy. Dale Wood’s organ settings of such carols have been re-imagined for chorus by Douglas E. Wagner in this work that can be effective as a service of lessons and carols, a Christmas cantata, or a carol collection for service or concert use. While there is a fair amount of nostalgia associated with these treasured tunes and texts, let not these feelings obscure our primary view as we strive to tread the true path this blessed time of year. As we each, in our own way, make our pilgrimage to the Babe lying in a manger, let us instead refocus our hearts and minds and Come Now to Bethlehem.
