The text for this carol was inspired by the priest Phillips Brooks’ visit to Bethlehem in 1895. It was set to music by his organist at Trinity Church, Boston, Lewis Redner, in 1868. The arrangement uses three of the four verses. The middle verse features a modulation to the subdominant key, and the melody moves from the top voice to an inner voice. The third and last verse features an obbligato solo melody. The arrangement was completed in 2017 for TTBB voices, with the SATB and SSAA arrangements following in 2018. Duration: 3:30.
