Liebergen Words: Jean Anne Shafferman Procession of Praise Arnold Sherman(ASCAP) SJA Handbell Choir Personent Hodie * Personent hodie voces puerulae laudantes iucunde qui nobis est natus, summo Deo datus, et de virgineo ventre procreates. In mundo nascitur, pannis involvitur, praesepi ponitur stabulo brutorum, rector supernorum, perdidit spolia princeps infernorum. Magi tres venerunt munera offerunt, parvulum inquirunt, stellulam sequendo, ipsum adorando, aurum, thus et myrrham ei offerendo. Anonymous (arr.) Lara G. Hoggard On this day earth shall ring with a song children sing to the Lord, Christ our King born on earth to save us Jesus, who God gave us. Shepherds in fields at night Saw the star's wondrous light With their flocks haste they made Ran to greet their Savior Christ the great life-giver. God's great star o'er His head Wise men three to Him lead Kneel them low by His bed Lay their gifts before Him Praise Him and adore Him

15 North Valley Chorale The North Valley Chorale is a voluntary, non-profit organization dedicated to the cultural, musical, and social enrichment of metropolitan Phoenix and its surrounding communities. We serve all segments of our community by providing affordable and accessible performances of choral music from many traditions, eras, and cultures. We work with joy and passion to improve our skills and capabilities so that we may perform these works at the highest possible level of personal and collective musicianship. We seek, recruit, and integrate a diverse and committed set of vocal talent into our membership. The North Valley Chorale reaches out into the surrounding community not only to share our music but to serve and lift up those suffering or in need. We do this by providing free concerts and volunteering our services throughout the year. This year our outreach activities include: o A holiday canned foods drive for area food pantries. o A free concert and sing-along for the benefit of the UMOM New Day shelter in Phoenix
