e Holy Spirit, Living Breath of God—Keith Getty &
Stuart Townend/arr. Lloyd Larson. Part of the Ring
& Sing series, this anthem can stand alone as a
handbell anthem or be used to accompany any of
the vocal versions (two-part mixed, TTBB, or vocal
solo.) It is particularly appropriate for Pentecost
Sunday but may be used anytime through the
church year.

moment in worship or as an opener or closer at
your next concert! An optional violin part included
in the score.

Compton. This stunning arrangement combines the

middle section. The opening motif returns to drive
the piece to its exciting conclusion. This selection is
not to be missed!
