Hi--sorry I'm so late in reading this e-mail, but wanted to give credit
the song to Ed Harris, a composer/retired music teacher, choir director,
and not least, the editor of Cadenza, our Montana music journal. He's
an incredible gifted person--years ago, he wrote a number of songs for
each holiday, both for primary and upper elementary, to familiar
melodies, and did the best job of matching rhythm of words to the melody
that I've ever seen. (You know how some of those piggy-back songs don't
flow very well when you're singing them) He's still composing wonderful
elementary and Jr. High pieces, look for them! and lives in Billings,
Mt.
