This delightful carol would be perfect for your Watch-Night service. It alternates 6/8 meter with 3/4, which gives it a liting feeling, and the fast-moving accompaniment complements the voices. This is just the kind of music that will bring the choir out for New Year’s Eve service.

Bedford marks the tempo “rollicking,” which is most appropriate for this cheerful salute to the New Year. Unison in part, then SATB, with some nice texture variations between men and women. The composer is also the poet, and the words are pleasant and direct as a prayer of hope for the New Year.
