Break Forth, O Beauteous Heavely Light

This Christmas title is well-known for its use in J.S. Bach's "Christmas Oratorio." Hymn writer Fred Pratt Green has added two contemporary stanzas which brings the meaning into our lives today with words such as, "Come, dearest child, into our hearts, and leave your crib behind you! Let this be where the new life starts for all who seek and find you." The new, original music soars in melodic grandeur. Useful for Christmas and the season of Epiphany - calling to "break forth, O heavenly light!"
