MUSIC AND CAROLS
The Christmas carols used in this version of the pageant are:
Oh Little Town of Bethlehem
Away in a Manger
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
Joy to the World
We Three Kings
Silent Night
We Wish You a Merry Christmas

You may wish to delete or add some carols (or verses) depending on the length of your performance. If you have some really polished singers, you might want to give them solos on one or more of the verses (remember to mike them well - your audience will be grateful).
