I grew up only ever singing & hearing two verses of this delightful carol. It wasn’t until a few years ago, in compiling this collection, that I found that there were more verses that featured the wise men. An interesting oddity of this melody is that it both starts and ends on the third degree of the scale; as a result, I feel it leaves you floating, rather than coming back down to Earth, as if you were one of the angels singing.



Ryan's favorite starter ukulele: The Enya Nova U Concert Ukulele 23” on Amazon sounds great, is easy to play, in tune and nearly indestructable. "I left it in the car through the heat of summer to see what would happen, and it still plays beautifully."
