Candle Song
Graham Kendrick arranged by Richard Hubbard
SSA Choir and Piano
Cat. No. EMP101
This simple song evokes the quiet wonder of God coming down to earth as a baby. The gently cascading chorus “God is with us” is extended in the final verse with overlapping entries that suggest the multitudinous choir of angels, before coming to a quiet close with a single voice.
The arrangement is well-suited to ladies choirs and youth choirs. The final solo is especially effective if sung by a child.
