In the Bleak Midwinter GUSTAV HOLST (1874-1934) ARR. BENJAMIN M. CULLI (b. 1975) In the bleak midwinter, What can I give Him, Frosty wind made moan, Poor as I am? Earth stood hard as iron, If I were a shepherd, Water like a stone; I would bring a lamb; Snow had fallen, If I were a Wise Man, Snow on snow, I would do my part; In the bleak midwinter, Yet what I can I give Him— Long ago. Give my heart. —Christina Rossetti (1830-1894) Heaven cannot hold Him, Nor earth sustain; Heaven and earth shall flee away When He comes to reign; In the bleak midwinter, A stable place sufficed The Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ.

CANONS OF DORDT

O Tannenbaum ARR. ALICE PARKER (b. 1925) ARR. ROBERT SHAW (1916-1999) O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum! Wie treu sind deine Blӓtter! Du grünst nicht nur zur Sommerziet, Nein auch im Winter wenn es schneit. O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum! Wie treu sind deine Blӓtter!

O , O Christmas tree, How lovely are thy branches; Not only green when summer’s here, But in the coldest time of year. O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree, How lovely are thy branches.

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree, How richly God has decked thee, Thou bidst us true and faithful be, And trust in God unchangingly. O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree, How richly God has decked thee! —Traditional German carol

Austin Faber, tenor

Coventry Carol ARR. DAN DAVISON (b. 1956)

Lullay, thou little tiny child, By by lully, lullay; Lullay, thou little tiny child, By by lully, lullay.

O sisters too, how may we do For to preserve this day, This poor youngling for whom we sing, By by lully lullay?

Herod the King, in his raging, Charged he hath this day, His men of might, in his own sight, All children young to slay.

Then woe is me, poor child, for thee, And ever mourn and say, For thy parting nor say nor sing, By by lully, lullay. —Traditional English carol

Elijah Goossen, finger cymbals

Jesu, dulcis memoria, dans vera cordis gaudia: The sweet memory of Jesus, giving true joy to the heart: Sed super mel et omnia ejus dulcis praesentia. But more than honey and all things His sweet presence. Nil canitur suavius, nil auditur jucundius, Nothing more delightful is sung, nothing more pleasing heard, Nil cogitatur dulcius, quam Jesus Dei Filius. Nothing sweeter thought, than Jesus the Son of God. —Bernard of Clairvaux (1091-1153)

And Suddenly MICHAEL ENGELHARDT (b. 1974)

And suddenly appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host Praising God, and saying, “Glory to God in the highest!”

Prophets had been talking for so many years, Telling people about the coming of the Lord. Then God’s favor fell on Mary And don’t you know the baby was born up in a manger in Bethlehem, Jesus would be His name. Then a heavenly host appeared unto them, Praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest!”

This day the world would change. Down to earth our God came. So make a path straight, prepare the way For this day is a wondrous day. Even time would rearrange! ‘Cause on this day the angels sang, “Glory to God in the highest! Peace on earth and goodwill to all.” —Luke 2:13-14, Michael Engelhardt

CHORALE

Judea (A Virgin Unspotted) WILLIAM BILLINGS (1746-1800)

A Virgin unspotted ye prophet foretold, Should bring forth a Savior which not we behold To be our redeemer from death, hell, and sin, Which Adam’s transgression involved us in.

Then let us be merry, put sorrow away, Our Savior Christ Jesus was born on this day.

Through Bethlehem’s city, in Jewry it was, That Joseph and Mary together did pass, And for to be taxed when thither they came, Since Caesar Augustus commanded the same.

But Mary’s full time being come, as we find, She brought forth her first born to save all mankind, The inn being full, for this heavenly guest, No place was there found where to lay him to rest.

To teach us humility all this was done, Then learn we from hence, haughty pride for to shun, A manger’s His cradle who came from above, The great God of mercy, of peace, and of love. —Traditional English carol

Nunc Dimittis (The Song of Simeon) ALEXANDER GRETCHANINOF (1864-1956)

Lord, now lettest Thou Thy servant depart in peace, According to Thy word. For mine eyes have seen Thy salvation Which Thou hast prepared before the face of all people. A light, to be a light, to lighten the Gentiles, And to be the glory of Thy people, Israel. —Luke 2:29-32

Sussex Carol TRADITIONAL ENGLISH CAROL ARR. ELAINE HAGENBERG On Christmas night, all Christians sing When sin departs before his grace To hear the news the angels bring, Then life and health come in its place. News of great joy, news of great mirth, Angels and men with joy may sing, News of our merciful King’s birth. All for to see the new-born King

Then why should men on earth be sad, All out of darkness we have light, Since our Redeemer made us glad; Which made the angels sing this night: When from our sin he set us free, “Glory to God in highest Heav’n, All for to gain our liberty Now and forevermore.” Amen! —Traditional English carol

Claira De Jong, student conductor See Amid the Winter’s Snow JOHN GOSS (1800-1880) ARR. DAN FORREST (b. 1978) See amid the winter's snow Hail, thou ever-blessed morn Born for us on earth below Hail, redemption's happy dawn See the tender Lamb appears Sing through all Jerusalem Promised from eternal years Christ is born in Bethlehem

Hail, thou ever-blessed morn Hail, thou ever-blessed morn Hail, redemption's happy dawn Hail, redemption's happy dawn Sing through all Jerusalem Sing through all Jerusalem “Christ is born in Bethlehem.” Christ is born in Bethlehem —Edward Caswall (1814-1878) Lo, within a manger lies He who built the lofty skies He, who, throned in light sublime Sits amid the cherubim

Brianna Miedema & Janna Vanden Brink, violin Parks Brawand, viola Jaren Brue, cello Katie Bush & Mary Nelson, percussion

Brightest and Best HYMN TUNE FROM SOUTHERN HARMONY (1835) ARR. SHAWN KIRCHNER (b. 1970) Hail the bless’d morn, see the great Mediator Down from the regions of glory descend! Shepherds go worship the babe in the manger, Lo, for his guard the bright angels attend.

Brightest and best of the stars of the morning, Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid. Star in the East, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.

Cold on his cradle the dewdrops are shining, Low likes his bed with the beasts of the stall. Angels adore him in slumber reclining, Maker, and Monarch, and Savior of all

Shall we not yield him, in costly devotion, Odours of Edom and off’rings divine, Gems of the mountains and pearls of the ocean Myrrh from the forest and gold from the mine? —Reginald Heber (1783-1826)

Brianna Miedema, violin Hudson Nitzel, string bass

CONCERT CHOIR

O come, O come, Emmanuel, And ransom captive Israel, That mourns in lonely exile here Until the Son of God appear. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel.

O come, thou rod of Jesse free Thine own from Satan’s tyranny, From depths of hell Thy people save, And give them vict’ry o’er the grave. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to three, O Israel.

Veni, veni, O Oriens! O come Thou Dayspring from on high, Solare nos adveniens, And cheer us by Thy drawing nigh, Noctis depelle nebulas, Dispel the gloomy clouds of night, Di rasque noctis tenebras. And death’s dark shadow put to flight. Gaude! Gaude! Emmanuel Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Nascetur pro te Israel. Shall come to thee, O Israel.

O magnum mysterium FRANCIS POULENC (1899-1963)

O magnum mysterium, O great mystery Et admirable sacramentum, And wonderful sacrament Ut animalia viderent Dominum natum, That animals should see the newborn Lord, Jacentem in praesipio. Lying in a manger. Beata Virgo cujus viscera Blessed virgin, whose womb Meruerunt portare Was worthy to carry Dominum Christum. Christ the Lord. —Traditional Latin liturgy

The Lamb JOHN TAVENER (1944-2013)

Little Lamb, who made thee? Dost thou know who made thee? Gave thee life and bid thee feed By the stream and o’er the mead; Gave thee clothing of delight, Softest clothing, woolly, bright; Gave thee such a tender voice, Making all the vales rejoice? Little Lamb, who made thee? Dost thou know who made thee?

Little Lamb, I’ll tell thee, Little Lamb, I’ll tell thee: He is called by thy name, For He calls himself a Lamb. He is meek, and He is mild; He became a little child. I, a child, and thou a lamb, We are called by His name. Little Lamb, God bless thee! —William Blake (1757-1827)

Noél Ayisyen (A Haitian Noël) EMILE DESAMOURS (b. 1941)

Sé té nan Betléèm It was in Bethlehem, Yon ti kwen nan Judé, A little corner of Judea, Mari té f’on gason That Mary had a baby boy A minui n’on étab. At midnight in a stable. Sé té pitit Bon Dyé, He was the Son of God É sé té wa dé wa. And he was the King of Kings. Dépi’m tou piti kon sa Since I was a little child Mwen konn istwa sa. I’ve known this story.

Té genyen twa wa maj There were three wise kings Ki swiv yon gwo zétwal, Who followed a great star Kado yo nan men yo With gifts in their hands Pou yo vin’ adoré’l. To come worship the child. É yo té byen sézi And they were quite amazed Lè yo wè ti Jézi When they saw little Jesus Kouché nan mitan yon bèf Lying between a cow Avèk yon bourik. And a donkey.

A la kotéou tandé, mézanmi wo! Hear that, my friends! Noèl sé yon istwa ki byen étranj! Noel is a strange story indeed! Jézi, pitit Bon Dyé, wa dé wa, Jesus, Son of God, King of Kings, Ki pa genyen bèso, Doesn’t even have a cradle. Li kouché sou pay pami zannimo. He sleeps on the straw among animals.

Yo rélé’l admirab They called him Wonderful, Konséyé, Dyé puisan, Counselor, Mighty God; Sé Pè étènèl tou The Everlasting Father, too; É li sé prins la pè. And he was the Prince of Peace. Ni bèjé, ni wa maj Both shepherds and wisemen Adoré’l a jénou. Bowed down to worship him. Yo ba li kado They gave him gifts Sélon sa yo té genyen. According to what they had.

Lè sa si nou té la (tan-man-nam), Back then, if we’d been there, Fok nou ta fè yon jès (tan-man-nam), We’d have done something fitting, Nou ta ofri mizik (ba-dap-pi) We’d have offered him music An bon jan ayisyen (tchi-ki-tchi). Of the best Haitian kind. Nou tap poté tanbou, We’d have brought drums, Manniboula, banbou, tcha-tcha, Manniboulas, vaccins, maracas; Ak bèl kout bandjo With fine banjo strums Nou ta chamé ti Jézi. We’d have charmed little Jesus.

Jézi, Jézi, ti Jézi nou, Jesus, Jesus, our little Jesus, A la renmen, nou renmen wou. We love you greatly. Ou poté la pè pou tout moun, You bring peace to all people É wou vin’ établi la gras. And you offer us grace.

Noèl, viv Noèl! Noel, long live Noel! —Emile Desamours

I will light candles this Christmas KIM ANDRÉ ARNESEN (b. 1980)

I will light candles this Christmas; Candles of joy despite all sadness, Candles of hope where despair keeps watch, Candles of courage for fears ever present,

Candles of peace for tempest-tossed days, Candles of grace to ease heavy burdens, Candles of love to inspire all my living, Candles that will burn all year long.

When the song of the angels is stilled, When the star in the sky is gone, When the kings and princes are home, When the shepherds are back with their flock, The work of Christmas begins: To find the lost, To heal the broken, To feed the hungry, To release the prisoner, To rebuild the nations, To bring peace among others, To make music in the heart. —Howard Thurman (1899-1981)

He Is CARLOS SIMON

He is! Can’t you see Mother Mary? Heavy laden with child The spirit come upon her. She was blessed all the while.

Ev’ry knee’s gonna bow, ev’ry tongue’s gon’ confess His holy name! And He is the Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Almighty God. He is the Prince of Peace, He’s the Everlasting Father.

Can’t you see that ol’ angel? Just like the prophet told That she would bear a son, the only son of God.

Can’t you see Father Joseph? Protecting Mary from disgrace. The angel reassured him, “Do not fear, but trust in faith.”

Can’t you see heav’n rejoicin’ at the coming of the Son? Sent to save this sin sick world through Him all vict’ry’s won.

He is the Wonderful Counselor, He is the Mighty God, He is the Everlasting Father. Ev’ry knee gonna bow, ev’ry tongue confess His holy name! —Isaiah 6:9, Courtney Ware, & Carlos Simon

Aaron Medberry, baritone Joshua Tatton, tenor Johanna Christensen, soprano
