Much of our Christmas celebration focuses on gift giving, beginning at the first Christmas when God presented mankind with the most magnificent gift it has ever received -- the gift of salvation through His Son Jesus. Rediscover a new focus at Christmastime with Deborah Craig-Claar and David T. Clydesdale's Wondrous Gift, a powerful retelling of the Christmas story. Starting with our modern perspective on Christmas, the musical quickly asks the question found in the words of poet Christina Rossetti, "What can I give Him?" Through the prophecies of Isaiah and Micah, and through the stories of Mary's visit from the angel, Christ's birth into our world, and the shepherds and angels acts of worship, the listener discovers that the only appropriate gift that we can give in respone to Christ is our heart. InWondrous Gift, classic Christmas songs like "The Little Drummer Boy" are woven together with newly written songs by Clydesdale and Craig-Claar. Two songs are included that your choir and congregation may already know: "Prepare the Way" from the Rocketown Records project "Gloria" and "Treasure of Jesus" from the Steven Curtis Chapman project "All Things New." This musical offers your congregation and community the opportunity to accept the most wondrous gift ever given . . . Salvation through Jesus Christ. Click here for production notes!
