Product Description
"Sing, O Sing, This Blessed Morn" is a hymn commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ. Written by Anglican bishop, scholar, author, and poet Christopher Wordsworth (1807-1885), it was published in his collection, The Holy Year; or Hymns for Sundays and Holy-Days, and Other Occasions (1862).
Rather than a retelling of the Nativity story, the hymn is more a statement of beliefs about the nature and work of Christ, echoing elements of the Nicene Creed in phrases such as:
"God from God, and Light from Light"
"God himself comes down from heav'n"
"One with us in human birth"
"God with us ... deigns forever now to dwell"
"born for us that we born again in him may be"
"with thy Spirit may [we] be ... with the Father and with thee"
This joyful, medium-easy setting of "Sing, O Sing, This Blessed Morn" for SATB voices and organ is mostly unison, with SATB on the first half of stanzas 3 and 5, and on the concluding "alleluias."
