The concert begins with an anthem setting He Shines composed by Andrews University student musician Grant Steinweg, based on the words from the New Testament Gospel John 1. He Shines is followed by My King is Comin’ Soon by Kyle Pederson that introduces a festive garland of heartwarming carols including: Will Todd’s My Lord Has Come, the stirring setting of Silent Night by Peter Angela led by graduate conductor Janelle Dobson, the sprightly Dance and Sing by Ryan Murphy led by graduate conductor Nicole Neugebauer, and Dan Forrest’s festive Oh Come, All Ye Faithfull.

The featured vocal soloists are: Ryan Clough – tenor, Elsie Mokaya – soprano, Safari Dushime – soprano, Davielle Smith – alto, Raleigh Pettey – baritone, Robby Raney – bass.

The concert is a collaborative presentation designed to inspire all in attendance to depart as servants to everyone that Jesus Christ came to save.
