Like the dawning of the morning (Charles H. Giffen)
-
As promised in the Favorite Hymn for Christmas Season thread, here is the full score (with descants) of my setting of "Like the dawning of the morning" - including also an MP3 sound file for all 8 stanzas. For those who only wish to sing 6 stanzas (omitting stanzas 6 & 7), an MP3 file for the 6 stanzas is also attached, as well as the original "hymnal" score (without descants). I am very much attached to Fr. Faber's text.
