This elegant and contemplative anthem recalls the moment when the shepherds gathered in a Bethlehem stable to worship the newborn King. The Rutter-like "alleluias" segue beautifully into the beloved Infant Holy, Infant Lowly, making this the quintessential Christmas Eve or devotional Christmas selection. (From the cantata, How Great Our Joy! SATB - 65/1963L; SAB - 65/1964L)
