I Wanna Thank You, Lord reflects the spirit and energy of a traditional spiritual in its lively syncopation, choral call and response, and vocal solos. Careful voice leading and repetitive sections make this SATB a cappella spiritual easy to teach and fun to sing. The exciting finale starts quietly, with opt. handclaps, and builds to a rousing finish. Showcase your school or church choir throughout the year with this outstanding work by Patsy Ford Simms.
