This is an arrangement for a cappella SSA choir of the traditional African American Carol "See the Little Baby lying in a manger one Christmas morning." It is also sung by Harry Belafonte (with a slightly different text) on youtube. Various texts exist. We chose the one that seems to be the most popular, and present in the online Hymnals. The audio is computer produced with instruments, but it sounds very good which makes me think that the piece would be very successful if played with three instruments.
