Patricia Hurlbutt's fresh setting of this timeless Christmas carol is made more interesting by the use of a variety of handbell techniques. While not difficult, it is very well scored to create a beautiful presentation. This one is sure to please in a number of concert or worship settings. 119 measures. Keys of Bb Major, Ab Major, and Eb Major.
