Follow the Star from Morning Star

Uses: Epiphany

Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12

This up tempo anthem is a stimulating admonition to seek the light of Christ and His illumination. Well suited for Epiphany, this rousing theme has touches ofsadness suggesting the shadows that surround the young Messiah in the days and years following His birth. Using a well-known carol tune helps draw the listener close and aids the learning process. A crisp approach to diction andarticulation will yield success in your presentation.
