A lilting 3/4 metre carries the listener through this familiar Christmas story, beautifully depicted in a text by the composer, presented here in a German translation. Rutter employs artful word-painting throughout, and the verse-refrain structure enables the compelling melody to soon become as familiar as any traditional carol of the season.
