Now available in an SAB edition, this 2010 cantata includes four brand-new choral pieces, two choral arrangements of familiar Christmas hymns, and narrated piano solos that shine new light on some old tunes.
This contemplative, short piece for men’s voices invites all to come to Christ. Through a simple comparison, the song relates the shepherds who left their flocks, the Apostles who left their nets, and the modern man who leaves his sins to follow Christ. It was conceived previously and arranged as a part of the 2010 Christmas cantata Come and Behold Him. This version is an excerpt from the original cantata score, with the same pagination and measure numbers.
