Review:
Kathleen Wissinger's lively rendition of this Christmas spiritual is adapted from a piano solo by John Carter. The catchy refrain is supported by a lilting accompaniment in 12/8. Optional 3-5 octaves of handchimes may play the verses (set in 4/4) for contrast. This clever arrangement is sure to be an uplifting addition to any Christmas service or concert. It is 52 measures long and is arranged in D Major and Eb Major.
