This worshipful invitation brings the comfort of the Savior’s love to the heart of the listener. The gentle rocking back and forth from major to minor suggests the deep longing of the soul while words of promise form a blanket around our sincere prayers for a relationship with God. The final quote from “Away in a Manger” is a masterful moment that brings the song to a quiescent and meaningful
conclusion. Score and Parts (ob, hn, tbn 1-2, perc, syn, vn, vc) available on CD-ROM and as a digital download.
