"Outstanding in both words and music," says one review of this piece. Chorale rather than carol it is clearly appropriate for Epiphany. However, with its wayward yet steadfast "English" melody, it also fits ideally between Lessons 8 & 9 of the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols.

Denny Gaudin's lyric links the lonely, star-seeking pilgrims to the cosmic splendour of St John's Prologue; while the music builds a choral climax that leads to the universal summons of "Adeste Fideles" - for all to go in heart and mind to Bethlehem. The organ adds heraldic tones, with just a phrase for Trumpet or Tuba.

Two SAB arrangements (one unaccompanied) appear in Nowell! Nowell! BMP006 and are available as off-prints and downloads.
