O Little Town of Bethlehem

O Little Town of Bethlehem was written in 1868 by American clergyman Phillips Brooks, inspired by a peaceful visit to Bethlehem a few years earlier. His organist, Lewis Redner, composed the gentle melody most familiar in the United States, while in Britain the carol is often sung to a folk tune arranged by Ralph Vaughan Williams.

Our Love to Sing choir keeps its calm, tender feeling in soft harmony, so it's easy to sing along. It's a lovely choice for carol services, school nativities and quiet evenings at home.
