Ruth Schram has captured the excitement of the shepherds as they hurry to the manger on Christmas Eve in this new work for adult and children's voices. You sense all the anxiousness of a Christmas morning in the children's voices as they direct the shepherds to leave their flocks and run to Bethlehem to greet the newborn babe. The adults chime in with the traditional carol, 'Shepherds, Shake Off Your Drowsy Sleep,' then both tunes and choirs combine in the rush to worship and welcome the King. A delightful addition to your Christmas repertoire.
