Praise You
Ruth Elaine Schram.
This original melody is a lightly syncopated testimony of praise based on
Psalm 57:9-10 that is memorable and simple to learn. This worshipful
scripture song delves into God's love and faithfulness as well as sharing
our praise with the rest of the world. Upbeat and appealing to children
with an optional descant that adds dimension and beauty.

Prayer
Natalie Sleeth/arr. Katie Houts.
This lovely musical paraphrase of the Lord's Prayer has received a
thoughtful update incorporating an expressive piano accompaniment
and a new optional part for C instrument. Developing choirs can include
the optional part II, which functions primarily as a canon with part I.
A wonderful selection to incorporate while children learn this prayer in
Sunday school or Christian education.

Welcome Song
Toni Sullivan.
This uplifting song of welcome is a wonderful selection for developing
voices of any age. A warm, inviting text of belonging and inclusion is its
core message: "Come in, come in, you are welcome here!" Six optional
handbells or handchimes can be played to support the descant line on
the final refrain. Vocally accessible, this anthem is a one-rehearsal gem
for a small adult choir and a terrific piece for a children's choir working
toward musical literacy.

Worship Christ, the Mighty King
Joanne LeDoux.
This joyful praise song features a singable melody with light syncopation.
The middle section explores some minor tonality with optional harmony,
alluding to Psalm 100. This section is followed by a powerful rendition
of
HYMN TO JOY with the congregation. The original melody returns with
optional harmony in the ending. An alternate Easter text is provided for
seasonal use. Handbells (2 octaves) add a festive touch.

I Will Show You the Way
Toni Sullivan.
This delightful anthem reminds us that we are God's disciples - called
to show God's love and care in all we do and say. Children will love
learning this piece with its accessible rhyming structure and melodic
sequencing. A whimsical spoken section in the middle is a wonderful
way to engage children who haven't yet discovered their singing voices,
giving all kids the confidence to be a meaningful part of this anthem.
Includes a Discovery Page for developing note readers.

Love Your Neighbor
Cindy Berry.
Matthew 22:39 teaches us to love our neighbors as we love ourselves.
This delightful anthem highlights a variety of ways we can show love and
caring to others. Repetition in text and melody makes the piece easy to
learn, especially for older elementary choirs.

Overflowing with Your Goodness
with Come, Thou Fount
arr. Joanne LeDoux, Milton LeDoux.
This lovely children's anthem begins with melody and text that explore
God's goodness, grace, and love. Stepwise passages give way to
easy leaps with a supportive and flowing accompaniment. After the
first verse, Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing is introduced. The two
melodies then combine as a partner song creating opportunities for
harmony singing. This gentle ballad provides a nice worship moment
for Thanksgiving or general use. Available separately, the Teacher
Resource features helpful teaching steps, a colorful classroom visual,
and a student score (lead sheet without piano accompaniment).
