Performed by the Chamber Singers ensemble of the Girl Choir of South Florida. Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson, Accompanist: Gayle Giese. The familiar African American song, “Angels watching over me” is given cantus firmus treatment while a lilting African lullaby, "Abiyoyo" gently sways around it. The Bantu song, "Abiyoyo" is traditionally sung at bedtime as a song to entrance night time monsters into a dancing state; mother and father can then chase the monsters away so baby can safely sleep. Abiyoyo, Abiyoyo, Abiyoyo- yo-yo-yo-yo -yo-yo All night, all day, Angels watching over me, my Lord All night,all day, Angels watching over me  ink" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="$(this).getParent().getPrevious().style.display='';$(this).getParent().style.display='none';">less

Before the paling of the stars, Before the winter morn, Before the earliest cock crow, Jesus Christ was born: Born in a stable, Cradled in a manger, in the world his hands had made Born a stranger. Priest and king lay fast asleep in Jerusalem; Young and old lay fast asleep in crowded Bethlehem; Saint and angel, ox and ass, Kept a watch together Before the Christmas daybreak in the winter weather. Jesus on his mother's breast in the stable cold, Spotless lamb of God was he, Shepherd of the fold: Let us kneel with Mary maid, With Joseph bent and hoary, With saint and angel, ox and ass, To hail the King of Glory.
