GENERAL ANTHEMS
Shelter Me—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."

Show Us How to Love—Mark A. Miller. A
compelling new piece from the talented duo of
Mark Miller and Lindy Thompson. Thompson's
earnest text compels communities of faith to
respond to hatred and injustice with a singular
prayer: "Show us how to love." Mark Miller's
music is a powerful and poignant complement
to the text, willing this prayer into action. In
addition to its use in sacred spaces, this piece
is an excellent choice for ecumenical, secular,
and school venues.

Based on Psalm 148, this anthem of
praise invites all creation to "sing out with
gladness" and worship the Lord. Great as a

instruments provide an expressive calypso-
style accompaniment for the jovial melody
that's easy to learn and fun to sing.

Sharpe. Incorporating strains of the familiar
OLD HUNDREDTH tune and text with new
words and music, this energetic anthem of
thankfulness and praise features call-and-
response choral parts and a flowing, fully

it's equally effective as a general praise or
Thanksgiving anthem.

Sing Your Way Home—Joseph Martin.
Deeply expressive, an old poem is treated with
rich harmonies to become a moving closer for
concerts or festivals. Written with an ear to the
a cappella glee club tradition, the incorporation
of Dvorak's Going Home connects to the
hearts of the audience and wraps them in
the embrace of the warm sounds of the text:
"Where'er you go, wherever you roam, it will
brighten your road; lighten your load, if you
sing, sing your way home."

Amazing Grace—arr. Robert T. Gibson.
A beautiful setting of the beloved hymn! A simple

movement, which paired with lovely lines for cello
and violin, add a lush foundation to the well-crafted
vocal lines. The traditional NEW BRITAIN melody is
singable, yet presented in a very moving arrangement.

Come Share the Lord—Bryan Jeffery Leech/
arr. Keith Christopher. This beautiful communion
offering nearly floats right from the page. A meaningful
text is brought to life through flowing melodic line and
a stunning piano part. References to angels make this
a wonderful choice for December communion, but it
is also fitting for any time the church gathers at the
Lord's table.

The Folded Flag—Joseph M. Martin. A poignant
solo opens this inspiring anthem, which slowly builds
as it presents three moments with the flag, moving
from the hands of grief to soaring into the hearts of the
future. The music has a cinematic scope, honoring one
who has given the "last full measure of devotion."

How Can I Keep from Singing?—Robert Lowry/
arr. Sarah Quartel. This is a lively reimagining of the
19th-century American folk hymn that opens with a
solo verse then proceeds with a soaring top melody
supported by the rhythmic vocal accompaniment of
the lower voices, with occasional alternation between
4/4 and 7/8 meter. Together, these elements capture
both the gentle hope and the profound joy of the text.

How Sweet the Sound—Christi Jones.
A longtime favorite, Amazing Grace gets a whole new
musical setting that is truly inspired. Upbeat, with
pleasantly syncopated lines and optional percussion,
this a cappella original surely encapsulates the text
"how sweet the sound"!

The river flows steady and calm in this beautiful
arrangement of the traditional spiritual edited by

It is accompanied by piano and is certain to become
a favorite.

Lord of the Small—Dan Forrest. This tender
hymn of praise reminds us that in the end we are
all weak and broken and that the Heavenly Father
deals lovingly and mercifully with all of His children.
Written in memory of little Erin Buenger, who lost
her battle to cancer at the age of 10, this beautiful
anthem will challenge your congregation to live life
in all circumstances to the glory of God - just as
she did. A fitting tribute for memorial services and
services of remembrance.

O Love—Elaine Hagenberg. This beautiful setting of
George Matheson's familiar hymn text functions
perfectly in both sacred or secular settings. Here,
O Love is given a fresh new melody with equally
refreshing and gorgeous harmonies. You will not want
to miss this for use as a sacred meditation in a worship
service or in a concert setting as a tribute to the glory
of love itself. Simply stunning!

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.

accompaniment. Larger voicings include options for

cluster chords create an artistic setting that is equally
appropriate for service use or the concert stage. Lovely!
