HYMN ARRANGEMENTS
Sing a Grateful Hymn of Praise
Joel Raney.
This exuberant anthem of praise begins with a stately presentation of
OLD 100TH (the Doxology), then segues into original material that flows
seamlessly into a verse from Fred Pratt Green's When in Our Music
God Is Glorified and culminates in a glorious flurry of "alleluias!" A final
reprise to "make a joyful noise, and sing a grateful hymn of praise"
provides a thrilling conclusion.
