This tender setting has just the right feel for Christmas Eve evening services. The text sings of the Newborn Light breaking into the world at the stable in Bethlehem. Composer Ephrem Feeley was drawn to this text celebrating the starry night after the birth of his daughter Stella (which is Latin for “starâ€).

An ethereal gentleness starts this piece that briefly recounts the story of the shepherds and the Magi. Choral writing with a dream-like quality supports the soloist. This is a great choice for that singer in your choir who can maintain a beautiful line, but perhaps does not possess a large range—optional notes are indicated at the end, when the melody may go a bit high for some. For cantor or soloist. 2 octaves Handbells or Handchimes.
