Classic hymn tune

Arr. by Mary McDonald

(0 Reviews)

This delightful presentation of a familiar text paired with the tune NETTLETON breathes new life in this dynamic Advent anthem. Mary McDonald adds her own melody and text in the center of this prayer for Christ to come. Equally effective with piano accompaniment or full orchestra, this originally appeared in Mary and Joel Raney’s best-selling Christmas musical, Sing Christmas code no. 8901.
