O Sacred Head, Now Wounded—arr. John
A. Behnke. Perfect for the Lenten season, this
beautiful arrangement of HERZLICH TUT MICH
VERLANGEN
uses no bell changes. Because of
this, ringers have the option of using music
stands instead of tables and can be positioned
safely in church or concert hall. A three-note
motive unifies this haunting arrangement and
the use of singing bell in the middle adds to the
overall effect.

There Is a Fountain—arr. Lloyd Larson. In
this setting of an old favorite hymn, the treble
bells set the stage with their gentle ostinato
against a lower melody. The melody then
moves to the treble with the bass taking over
the ostinato. All combine for a rich and glorious
final verse before ending peacefully. The violin
part, while optional, gives a lovely Appalachian
quality to the hymn tune.

beautiful choice for any service during Lent.

Mitchell Eithun. Flowing eighth-note arpeggios
and delicate countermelodies underscore the
first verse of this stunning arrangement of the

light. A key change into a more forceful final
