Music by Jane M. Marshall Words by Paulus Gerhardt Edited by Sheldon Curry
This marvelous anthem won the American Guild of Organists prize in 1958. It was and has continued to be a stalwart anthem of the church. For its 50th anniversary, Sheldon Curry crafted this new edition and premiere orchestrator Ed Hogan added optional brass quintet and timpani. It includes voicing alternatives to address the needs of both larger and smaller choirs. The effect for morning, evening worship, and any festive worship day is as thrilling as ever.
