We Shall Walk Through the Valley
arr. Undine Smith Moore.
The arrangement of this African American spiritual is both accessible and
gorgeous. A short choral section is used for the introduction, interludes
between verses, and at the conclusion, adding cohesion to a lovely
setting. Perfect for the first Sunday of Lent or as a companion anthem
whenever Psalm 23 is scheduled.

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
arr. Lloyd Larson.
This anthem, extracted from the best-selling cantata A Festival of Hymns,
is not to be missed. Opening simply with a quiet solo, the music gradually
builds until the final measures practically explode in a grand gesture of
praise and commitment. Rich choral textures and an artistically conceived
piano accompaniment make this anthem the perfect choice to open or
close that special Lenten or Holy Week service.

Where Compassion and Love Abide
Ubi Caritas
Philip M. Hayden.
A treasured truth for troubled times, this anthem's theme is beautifully
poignant. After an initial statement in English, the same text is expressed
in Latin (with English alternative), bringing the ancient text alive. Bathed
in serenity, the melody is delicate and carries the message of charity and
hope to the heart of the listener.

Search Me, O God
A Psalm of Humility
Heather Sorenson.

enhanced by beautiful piano and cello accompaniment. Layered vocal
writing weaves luscious harmonies with occasional clusters and divisi.
Subtitled A Psalm of Humility, it is appropriate for worship throughout the
year and especially for Lent.

Take Up Your Cross, the Savior Said
arr. Howard Helvey.
The rugged early American tune
BOURBON provides an assertive choice as
a choir anthem during the Lenten season. The energetic treatment with
its off-beat accents perfectly suits the tune and text: "Take up your cross,
the Savior said, if you would my disciple be; take up your cross with
willing heart, and humbly follow after me."

Ubi Caritas
Michael John Trotta.
The beloved Latin text is set in an elegantly simple texture with
conservative ranges. Straightforward rhythms and moments of release
create a tapestry of sound that surrounds the chant line. In a variety of
voicings with or without piano accompaniment, the beautiful modern
harmonies and cluster chords create an artistic setting that is equally
appropriate for service use or the concert stage.
