Like a Mighty River
Let Justice Roll
Michael Barrett.
A treasured passage from Amos is treated to a joyful
new choral acclamation in this piece. The text speaks
of truth, justice, and the importance of spiritual
integrity. While the meter is 4/4, opening and closing
rhythms break into 3+3+2 subdivisions giving the
piece a driving pulse. Unison lines help articulate
the text before giving way to full choral writing that
asserts the power and conviction of the words.

Bob Chilcott.

Love Shall Be Our Token
Michael John Trotta.
"Love shall be our token, love be yours and love
be mine...love shall be our prayer, love shall be our
sign." This gorgeous setting of the Christina Rosetti
text is a wonderful expression of love, support, and
unity. Accompanied by either organ or piano, the
thoughtful voicing leading, conservative ranges, and
opportunities for expressive singing make it both
accessible and musically satisfying.

O My Soul Will Rest
on Jesus
Hunter Leath, Taylor Agag & Daniel Ronstrom/
arr. Jay Rouse.
From a sweet, unison beginning, this anthem moves
into easy SATB with light percussion and piano
or orchestration. The middle section builds to an
appealing repetition of a rhythmic motive and ends as
it began, with a unison statement of the main theme.
Use for blended worship or as a meditative moment in
a more contemporary setting.

A Prayer for Healing
Joseph M. Martin.
Written during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic,
this song of spiritual and physical wellness speaks to
many moments of need. Opening with the first few
chords of O God, Our Help in Ages Past, the anthem
is framed as a petition for God's healing mercy. The
unison melody gently rises and falls before all join
in on the prayerful refrain: "In the silence help us
hear words of hope and promise clear. Teach us not
to live in fear. Lord of all, we pray to you." A true
anthem of hope!

A Prayer for Peace
Joseph M. Martin & Robert Sterling.
A bittersweet theme in minor mode lifts an emotive
prayer for peace in this expressive anthem. Beginning
with the familiar Latin phrase "Dona nobis pacem,"
which is placed musically in dialogue with treble and
lower voices, the piece segues to an eloquent four-
part middle section that cries out for wellness and
rest in a troubled world. "Peace is like the gentle
snow ... covering ev'ry scar with hope to let the
healing start." The piece then ends as it began, with
a quiet, earnest prayer: "Grant us peace."

Redeemed
A.L. Butler/arr. John Purifoy.
This classic hymn that beautifully captures the joy of
salvation is set in a lilting and accessible arrangement
for choirs of any size. Fresh and simple, the anthem
in 6/8 dances with sincerity to share the heart of faith:
"Redeemed, redeemed, redeemed by the blood of the
Lamb." Inspired and worshipful!

Shalom
Dan Forrest.
This tender and comforting work 'passes the peace'
as its simple yet elegant melody washes over the
listener, gently unfolding its text with increasing
texture: "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give
to you, not as the world gives; do not be afraid."
The Hebrew word "shalom" forms the refrains, and
whispers of the word "peace" further paint the spirit
and promise of the text. With piano and optional
violin, this piece is equally at home in worship or
concert settings.

Shelter Me
Protegeme
J. Michael Joncas.
Written in response to the COVID-19 crisis, this piece
is based on the beloved Psalm 23 and seeks to help
the faithful find God's presence even in difficult times.
The Spanish text by Santiago Fernandez, while not
a literal translation, is faithful to the concepts and
imagery of Joncas' text. "All will be well if only you
will shelter me."

Ubi Caritas Pastoralis
Craig Courtney.
This stunning setting of the traditional Latin text is so
rich and so deep that the music perfectly matches the
quietly profound ardor of the timeless plainchant. The
clarinet provides an ethereal counterpoint to the SATB
divisi a cappella voices that are lush with occasional
cluster harmonies. Intended for a capable choir, it can
be performed in both worship and concert settings.

The Waters of Grace
Joseph M. Martin.
Steadily flowing with the refreshing message of God's
mercy and grace, this lilting folk-style anthem is a
quick learn for your singers. A thinner choral texture
allows for lyrical clarity and lightness of timbre as the
invitation goes out to come to "the waters of grace"
to be renewed and refreshed. Ideal for rededication or
baptism services.

We Are Not Alone
Pepper Choplin.
"We are not alone, God is with us." Here is an
anthem that succinctly captures a confident thought
and presents it in such a straightforward, honest
way that you can't help but be moved! Gently
rhythmic choral ostinati support a soprano solo that
glides above the other voices in smooth, sustained
lines. Accessible and effective with large or smaller
choirs, this anthem touches the heart with its simple
but profound message. Originally conceived as an
a capella anthem, optional orchestration adds a
dramatic element.

You Do Not Walk Alone
Elaine Hagenberg.
"May you always remember when the shadows fall,
you do not walk alone." This ethereal setting of a
traditional Irish blessing is scored for mixed or treble
voices and piano with deft strokes of Celtic styling and
a melody that weaves throughout the vocal texture.
Gradually building in intensity, it transitions into the
final stanza with a burst of light, aided by the key
change, then slowly draws to a quiet close.
