The Sound Was a Savior

The words and music for “The Sound Was a Savior” are original. The idea is simple: life was moving along at its normal, every-night pace when suddenly sounds that were out of the ordinary were heard: a choir of angels, a baby crying! This precious sound was that of a baby, who would be “the Savior of the world.”

It is scored for children’s choir and adult choir. However, feel free to make it work for your situation by using a small ensemble if a children’s choir is unavailable.

“The Sound was a Savior, The Savior of the world
It was the sound of love piercing the dark of sin Promising that light had come that night.”
