Hail the Day That Sees Him Rise
Robert Williams/arr. Dan Forrest.
This setting of the exuberant hymn
LLANFAIR begins with new music
centering on the foundational truth of Romans 8: "If God be for us, who
can be against us?" Building in intensity as it declares Christ's victory,
the work comes to a thrilling culmination as the final verse is sung with a
soprano descant using the Romans passage as its crown jewel. Sensible
vocal ranges, two brass players, percussion, organ and optional piano allow
for the work to be presented with choirs of any size. Absolutely glorious!

Mercy Tree
Krissy Nordhoff & Michael Neale/arr. Joseph M. Martin.
Made popular by Lacey Sturm in a notable Billy Graham documentary, this
contemporary anthem features a Celtic-like melody that adapts beautifully
for choir. The music builds through each verse that retells the narrative of
Christ's crucifixion and subsequent victory. The final chorus, "Death has
died, love has won, Hallelujah!" is a sublime musical moment that your
congregation will cherish. A compelling invitation to the listener to recall the
power of the cross and the sacrificial love of Christ.
