Fitting for the season of Christmas, especially the feast of the Holy Family, this song explores the example of Mary and Joseph: how they formed a family, caring for Jesus and for each other. The text expresses themes of the kind of protective love that provides strength and shelter during difficult times, and petitions Mary and Joseph for their prayers. The score gives an option for full SATB or two-part chorus, with compatible accompaniments for keyboard, guitar, and solo instrument in C. The accessible melody and easy diatonic harmonies will enable your assembly to sing along with spirit.
