Most of our “stable songs” are about the infant Jesus. Here is a fresh new view of the nativity scene – Mary sleeping near her child and dreaming of the future. This expressive anthem gives us a glimpse of what might have happened after the birth. The young parents lovingly watching over the baby and pondering what is to come. The innocence of the text and the exquisite alleluia section make this the perfect candlelight carol for Christmas Eve. “Mary Sleeping, Softly Lies” is, in a word, beautiful.
