Product Description

This tender and reflective hymn by Bergeta Williams, set to music by Kevin G. Pace, explores the profound idea of a premortal connection to the birth of Christ. It invites the listener to imagine witnessing the Nativity firsthandsinging with angels, saying farewell to the Savior, and recalling a sacred premortal promise made in heavenly councils. With imagery of spring-green fields and awe-struck shepherds, the hymn stirs a deep sense of spiritual memory and wonder, suggesting that our souls may faintly recall that holy night and the divine plan we once embraced.

Text:
1. When Christ was born in Bethlehem the fields were green with spring,
and startled shepherds tending sheep, saw angels, heard them sing.
Could you and I have been there too, bidding our dear Lord goodbye?
Did we sing with that angelic choir high in the starlit sky?

2. Had we not met in councils there where the sons of God conversed
and promised to support the plan that Christ would bring to earth?
Did we gaze in awesome wonder at the babe in manger stall?
Somehow, I half remember Yes, somehow I half recall.
