Bold and vigorous, this bright, rhythmic setting of Psalm 100, with a short, lyrical inner section, is a strong selection for school concerts, contests or festivals. A fine choice!

 A profoundly moving text, written on a cellar wall during the rise of Nazi Germany, joins with original music to create a deeply emotional expression of hope for all mankind.  With brief narration and the echo of a Russian folk melody, this is an important contribution to the concert repertoire for more discerning choirs!

Stuart Townend and Keith Getty’s popular worship song is a compelling blend of scripture and folk-like melodic writing.  Adapted to the choral medium by David Angerman, this confident ballad is an ennobling statement of faith and the power of Christ’s redemption for mankind.  This will appeal to worshippers of every age.

This sensitive, earnest ballad explores the infinite love of God that allowed his Son to be sacrificed for us. Gentle blending of melodies and piano accompaniment brings dignity to the Early American folk-like tune and lends this contemporary worship song a “classic” feel. It makes a great contemporary feature for the more traditional church!

Greg has taken the traditional Quaker text and positively supercharged it with his own gospel-styled music in this marvelous new look at a timeless American poem. This one has it all – a wide-open solo for your best gospel singer, an accompaniment that’s fine as is, or can be embellished at will by your pianist, and hand claps from the very first measure that’ll quickly spread through your audience or congregation. Highly recommended!
