“The Keeper of Galilee,” is a lovely SATB arrangement by composer, Kathleen Holyoak. The beautiful and most descriptive words by Sherry Summers provide listeners with a visual of Galilee, the place where many miracles took place during Christ’s ministry:
The Keeper of Galilee
They traveled the rills and the rolling hills
to the place where the Master would be.
Some journeyed as far as the desert sands
to the shore of the murmuring sea.
The lame man had left his bed and walked;
the blind man from birth now could see!
The people of neighboring villages knew
of the Keeper of Galilee.
His arms opened wide to the whole country side
as He stepped from the old fishing boat.
And then one by one, Father’s beautiful Son
introduced His disciples by name.
He spoke of the precious birds and flow’rs
and how He would take care of me.
My eyes never moved from the billowing robes
of the Keeper of Galilee.
I heard Him speak, He spoke to me
from the banks of the Galilee.
If He could calm a raging storm,
He could certainly do this for me.
The stones and the trees seemed to magnify
the words of this soft-spoken man.
My sorrow released as I wept at the feet
of the Keeper of Galilee.
Right there, near the rock, when He taught I knew
from the moment we met by the sea;
My life would never be the same.
He would carry my burdens for me.
And when the sun cast a silhouette,
five loaves and two fishes would feed
the five thousand hungry who were cared for that night
by the Keeper of Galilee.
My sorrow released, it was left at the feet
of the Keeper of Galilee.

This beautiful SATB setting by lyricist, Sherry Summers and composer, Kathleen Holyoak, conveys the excitement and joy surrounding Christmas Day! It is one of rejoicing, commitment and praise to God, our Father, and the gift of His Son.
On This Christmas Morning
Joyously the choir sings,
in accord, praising Him!
A chorus of angels joining in,
on this Christmas morning.
Peace on earth, good will to men.
Praise to our Father, Elohim.
Ringing chords in tune for Him,
on this Christmas morning.
Holy child of royal birth,
the Savior’s come, He’s come to earth!
He left His heavenly home for awhile;
of Him we extol and testify!
What are blessings He shall bring?
Grace and mercy, love without end.
May we raise a voice to Him,
on this Christmas morning.
What are the truths He shall bring?
Seek Him in the simplest things!
Let’s keep our promises to Him,
on this Christmas morning.
Holy child of royal birth,
the Savior’s come, He’s come to earth!
He left His heavenly home for awhile;
of Him we extol and testify!
Frankincense, gold and myrrh
were gifts for Him from travel’rs afar.
I give my heart, mind and strength,
on this Christmas morning.
Bethlehem brought forth my King,
Master giver of everything.
Let us give glory back to Him,
On this Christmas, joyous Christmas,
On this Christmas, Christmas morn!
