O Little Town of Bethlehem
My eighth track for "Invalid ItemOpen in new Window. is another piece from the Christmas album by Andrew Dale and David Chafe.

I'm beginning with the vocal version (my next track will be an instrumental of the same) because I have always loved the words of this carol. I had them memorized as a kid from my old booklet of Christmas sheet music, but I never knew how it was supposed to sound. When I discovered the Midnight Clear album and saw O Little Town of Bethlehem on it, I knew this would be the perfect rendition for me.

With his calm, clear voice and the piano following gently along, these artists together pay homage to the reverent spirit of the carol. I don't know how many times I've prayed the final prayer in my own heart over the years. It's a song I'm very close to, though I'm still familiarizing myself with the true melody after years of not knowing.

I'll be discussing both a vocal and an instrumental of O Little Town of Bethlehem, so we can all appreciate it in the deepest possible way. Enjoy *Smile*
