28 Nov 99 - 09:25 PM (#141916) Subject: A Child Is Born From: Don I'm looking for what I think is an old hymn, perhaps Lutheran. Heard it on Garrison Keilor's Prairie Home Companion, a 1996 Christmas radio show - I think. Here's the text, but no title and I can't find the music. It begins: A Child is born in Bethlehem, Bethlehem That gladdens all Jerusalem,.Halleluiah. Halleluiah. And the Chorus is: Along our way, the bright stars shine, The happiness of all mankind. The angels teach us harmonies That echo through the centuries. And someday angels we shall be And Jesus' gentle face we'll see. We'll sing His praises without end, our brother, Savior and our friend. Thanks for any help you might be!! |

In other words you should be able to find a part in there to suit your voice and practice some nice harmonies before Christmas.
If anyone would like to see the score, I can send a GIF of the notes to someone with some space on a Web-page so that all can share some pre-Christmas singing joy. I'm not into Chat, but perhaps we could arrange a choir practice on-line for the Mudcat Chorale?
