The Best New Hymn Anthems
Come, Thou Fount
of Every Blessing
arr. Charles McCartha.
From the first notes, a dazzling piano pattern in 5/4 signals

NETTLETON, gracefully dancing in this meter. A tender verse of
Jesus Paid It All follows, then a return to the energy of the first
meter and hymn tune. The arrangement sings easily for choirs
while infusing these time-honored tunes with life, energy, and joy.
