SACRED CONCERT & SPIRITUALS
God Be with You 'Til We Meet Again—Kyle
Pederson. This simple yet heartfelt melody for
this traditional Irish blessing will resonate with
your choir as well as your audience. Additional
text by the composer adds depth to the already
lovely text: "May you know grace and mercy;
may you serve as you've been served; may
you forgive as you've been forgiven, may you
love as you've been loved." An optional guitar
or harp/synth part provides atmosphere and a
wistful, enchanting quality.

God Will Give Orders/Sweet Child (from
"Snow Angel")—Sarah Quartel. Beginning
with a mystical, ethereal feel with a haunting
optional cello line, this piece opens with lyrical
choral lines singing over a baby and promising
heavenly protection and care. The mood then
shifts to a celebratory and rhythmic feel with
djembe, and eventually a quieter a cappella
refrain closes with the choir affirming the
promise: "Sweet child, you're the future...
Sweet child, I will show you how to love."

Gonna Sing All Over Heaven—Greg Gilpin.
Here's an original work set in a gospel style
with an accessible piano accompaniment
that supports the vocals but allows for some
improvisation, along with the opportunity to add
bass and drums for extra rhythmic excitement.
There are opportunities for solos and a great
section feature for the basses in the middle.
Easy to learn and lots of fun to perform!
11501670 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.50
Gospel Train—arr. Tripp Carter. Tenor-bass
choirs will enjoy singing this upbeat setting
of the well-known spiritual. Ample unison
lines, intuitive harmonies, and a supportive
accompaniment keep it moving along, and the
accelerando section builds with the speed of an
oncoming train leading to a memorable ending.
Get on board!

Grace Before Sleep—Susan LaBarr. Sara
Teasdale's poem of thanks inspired this
beautiful, melodic setting for a cappella choir.
A quiet opening builds into a gorgeous,
resounding climax before coming to a more
reflective, thankful close. The piece could
provide a tender, thoughtful ending to a
concert, or be part of a theme of thanksgiving.

setting of the traditional spiritual speaks of the
need for guidance and trust in the Lord. Scored

of the divisi writing can be shared across treble

by smaller choirs.
