More about this title

About the Artist: Michael W. Smith

Michael W. Smith stands as one of contemporary Christian music's most prolific and commercially successful artists. His work across multiple decades has shaped the sound of modern worship and holiday music, earning him numerous Grammy awards and a devoted following that extends well beyond the Christian music market.

Why we love this

Michael Brown's arrangement respects the song's contemplative essence while giving it orchestral weight appropriate for concert band. The Grade 2 scoring ensures accessibility without sacrificing the emotional restraint that makes this piece genuinely moving, not saccharine.

What to expect

Quiet and reflective, with the harmonic clarity of Smith's original vocal recording adapted for instrumental voices. The arrangement creates space around the melody, inviting careful listening rather than flashy display.

Who it's for

Bands seeking meaningful holiday repertoire that offers contrast to more energetic seasonal fare. This works equally well for concert bands building a winter program that includes sacred or interfaith selections.

How to get the most out of it

  • Sustain the stillness in longer note values; resist any urge to rush the harmonic progressions, which carry the emotional weight.
  • Balance the melody across sections as it passes from upper woodwinds to lower voices, maintaining consistent phrasing throughout.
  • Shape dynamics gradually rather than abruptly, letting the piece breathe naturally in the spaces between phrases.

How to use it

Position this as a centerpiece for a meditative moment in your winter concert, perhaps following a more spirited selection. Its brevity and gentle character make it ideal for holiday assemblies, community concerts, or sacred music contexts.

Skills your students will build

  • Sustaining long tones with consistent tone quality
  • Balancing sectional entrances when melody transfers between instrumental families
  • Shaping phrases expressively at slow tempos
  • Blend and intonation in sustained harmonic progressions
