Baby, What You Goin' To Be?

This song is so completely beautiful, it's four parts, SATB, and has the most gorgeous intricacies running through it as the parts intertwine. We got to do this in my church choir a few years ago and it was my favorite to sing of the entire program.

Donny Osmond did this on his "Christmas At Home" CD, and incorporated 34 separate tracks of his voice and he sounds just wonderful on it.



And by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, just gives me goosebumps is so gorgeous! By a choir is how this song sounds its most amazing.



Baby
Lying in a manger
Slumbering
So sweetly
Whatcha gonna be?

Baby
All the world
Is watchin'
All the world
Awaits to see
What will you be?

Baby
Sleeping
In a stable
Underneath
The heavens
Whatcha gonna say?

Baby
Did you bring
The Good News?
Did you come
To light our way?

Oh, look
See the cattle asleep
See
The shepherds beside
See the Wise Men
They bow unto you
Are you the one
Who was meant
To be Master?
To bring
In the Kingdom too?

Alleluia Baby
Hope of all the people
What you come here to do?
What you come to say?

Baby
Can you be the Savior?
Come to save
The world one day?

Baby
Can you be the Savior?
Come to save
The world one day?

Baby
lying in a manger
Will you save
The world one day?

I wish everyone the most joyful and blessed Christmastide.
