Advent Lullaby Top Pick
For 2-part choir (Soprano/Alto) and Organ - A stunning and beautiful setting of an original text by Linda Muehlig. This anthem would be a great choice for communion during Advent services as well as Lessons and Carols. The recording is of the version for SSA which can be found here. Learning tracks are available for this piece and accessed from the downloaded .pdf.
Lullaby, child to be born,
Thou shalt be carried safe and warm,
Gently cradled, kept from harm,
Until I hold thee in my arms.
Lullaby, my only one,
Sleep, thy passing's yet to come
from heaven to earth to heaven,
To us thy short time is given.
Lullaby below my heart,
Ever within, Ever a part,
Now thy life is mine to tend,
And ours shall be for thee to mend.
Lullaby, for life to come,
my joy, no less my son,
If less a king and poor,
I could not love thee more.
