Savior, Shepherd, Lead Me
Lloyd Larson.
This general or Good Shepherd Sunday anthem combines Bach's
Zion hort die Wachter singen with the traditional tunes
LEAD ME, LORD
and BRADBURY (Savior, Like a Shepherd Lead Us). The soothing
arrangement is masterfully conceived and offers piano and cello
accompaniment. The creative worship minister can add a scripture
reading over the lengthy introduction.

Sing to the Lord of Harvest
arr. Mark Edwards.
A traditional text is paired with a lesser-known 18th-century English
folk song in a clever arrangement. Set in a minor key, the easy-to-sing
melody and simple harmonies make this arrangement attainable by
choirs of any size. This animated piece will be enjoyed by all. Score and
parts for soprano recorder (piccolo), triangle, hand drum, fiddle (violin),
cello, and piano are available separately.

When Morning Gilds the Skies
John A. Behnke.
An impressive organ introduction opens this festive concertato on the
hymn tune
LAUDES DOMINI. The choir and congregation sing together
on verse 1, celebrating the beauty of a new day. Morning Mood from
"Peer Gynt" is incorporated in a verse, and the setting ends with choir,
congregation, and organ celebrating the ever-present love of Christ.
Parts for handbells (3-5 octaves), brass quintet, and timpani are available.

Let Me Walk with Thee
Henri F. Hemy & James G. Walton/arr. Sean Paul.
This simply beautiful anthem combines the hymn tune ST. CATHERINE
with an original text inspired by O Master, Let Me Walk with Thee. The
thoughtful melodic lines and impressionistic piano accompaniment
lead to a soaring final verse with the voices accompanied by keyboard
triplet figures for forward motion. It ends gently, with optional solo. A fine
choice for a small adult choir or a youth choir.

Lord of All Hopefulness
Jocelyn Hagen.
With a melody that uses the hymn tune SLANE and a message of
hope and peace, this setting is balm for the soul. A very creative and
interesting piano accompaniment is matched with accessible and rich
choral writing. Your choir will enjoy singing this anthem of comfort and
trust. Parts for string quartet are available.

Now Thank We All Our God
arr. Marianne Forman.
Phrases of NUN DANKET float in and gradually establish themselves
using unexpected meter and rhythm. The stanzas of the hymn build in
texture and strength to the very end. Suitable for Thanksgiving season
or any time of thanks in general worship.

Our Great Redeemer's Praise
Thomas Jarman/arr. Anna Laura Page.
The traditional Charles Wesley text is combined with the buoyant tune,
LYNGHAM, to create a rousing anthem. A regal first stanza is followed by
a legato treatment in the second stanza. The third stanza, set in relative
minor, beautifully paints the text. The regal style returns in the last stanza
for a triumphant ending. Parts for 3-5 octave handbells are available
separately, as are score and parts for trumpets 1 &2, trombones 1 & 2,
horn in F (sub. for trombone 1), tuba, percussion, timpani, and organ.
