A WONDERFULL CHRISTMASS

"A Wonderfull Christmass" is a bright, expansive holiday greeting that reaches far beyond the walls of our own parishes. Isaac Omaye’s composition opens with a simple, heartfelt solo prayer before the choir bursts in, calling out blessings to every corner of the globe—from Africans and Asians to Antarcticans and Europeans. It is a joyful reminder that the glad tidings of the Nativity are truly universal, uniting the whole world in celebration.

Musically, the piece builds an infectious, rhythmic momentum. While the lower voices hold down a steady, repeating wish for a prosperous new year, the soprano line dances above them with its grand roll-call of the continents. The song then shifts into a lively, upbeat section wishing everyone the love and peace of Christ. The repeated "merrily, merrily, merrily" lines give the choir a chance to really smile and bring energy to the pews.

Perfect for end-of-year concerts, Christmas day Masses, or festive parish gatherings, this song leaves the congregation with a powerful blessing for the future. As the lyrics promise that God will "level all the mountains" before we step into the next year, it sends everyone home with a spirit of deep hope and joyful expectation.
