Note: This play requires cast members to sing both "Away in a Manger" and "Hark! the Herald Angels Sing." For free words and music to these two songs, go to HymnSite.com. The version of "Away in a Manger" on this web site is different from the one referenced in the play. If you you use the HymnSite version, feel free to omit the "Asleep . . . asleep" portion in your performance of the play.
