God Wouldn't Bring You This Far to Leave
You—Tom Trenney. This soulful setting of an

anything else can separate us from the love
that God will show." Your choir and audience
will love the narrative episodes between
refrains, the effective styling of the piano part,
and the closing vamp that builds to its emphatic
ending: "God will not ever let go!"

Crandal. This straightforward gospel-style song
is based on Micah 6:8 and features themes of
justice, humility, love of God, and hope over

background vocals rather than as harmonic
support for the melody.

John the Revelator (Traditional Gospel
Blues)—arr. Paul Caldwell & Sean Ivory. If
you have the choir and accompanist to handle
this, you must give it a serious look because
it is just phenomenal! In its original form, the
song stems from the Delta Blues tradition, and
was recorded by Blind Willie Johnson and Son
House during the 1920s and 1930s. "O tell me
who is that writin'? John the Revelator...O tell
me what is he writin'? 'bout the Revelation...
writin' in the book of seven seals..." With
vocal glissandi, claps, stomps and stunning
dynamics, this is intense, and well worth the
work you put into it!
