4 At the River—arr. Victor Johnson. From the always-creative pen of Victor
Johnson comes this stunning new setting of Robert Lowry's well-loved text.
Sweeping melodic gestures, rich harmonic
moments, and a lush keyboard accompaniment make this a song your choir
will want to sing again and again. The a cappella appearance of the hymn
tune
HANSON PLACE is a masterful touch. Equally effective for church or school
settings. Highly recommended!

Brought to the Water—Jonathan Kohrs. A modern hymn concertato,
with text by Lisa M. Clark, for unison/congregation, piano, flute, and oboe with
optional guitar and bass. A flowing accompaniment with instruments weaving in
and out complement a text that proclaims the life of a baptized child of God. Use
this at baptisms, and when the theme is sanctification and mission. This piece
can be sung by children but will also be effective with women's or men's voices.

Child of God—Mark A. Miller. This anthem has all you've come to expect
from Mark Miller: resonant lyrics combined with a soulful melody. Mixed choirs
of all ages and sizes will enjoy singing this Gospel ballad. The bridge brings the
piece to a powerful climax: "There is no thing, or no one, that can separate you
from the truth that you're someone - you are family; you are meant to be a child
of God." Includes an optional congregational part for use in worship. Great for
any service with a peace and justice focus, as well as baptismal celebrations.

American folk hymns, Down to the River to Pray and Shall We Gather at the
River, are creatively blended together in this outstanding anthem. Accessible

simple yet supportive keyboard accompaniment.

BAPTISM ANTHEMS
H Be Not Afraid—Craig Courtney. Commissioned
by a church in Sioux City, Iowa, which was forced to
relocate due to flooding, this lyrical anthem speaks of
God's presence with us in times of hardship and of
His infinite mercy. A wonderful musical expression of comfort and courage for
confirmation, child baptism or dedication, or any time you wish to convey the love
of God through Isaiah's words of redemption: "You are precious in My sight."
The opening statement can be sung by sopranos or solo voice, but is especially
appropriate for children's voices.

Borning Cry—John Yvlisaker/arr. Kadidlo. "I was there to hear your
borning cry, I'll be there when you are old." Here is a quiet song of assurance for
God's gentle leading in a person's life - even before a child is aware that God is
there. A lyric gem for two-part mixed voices, it includes a whisper of Jesus Loves
Me and a haunting solo on soprano saxophone, which can be played by any
other C instrument. A fine choice for Baptisms or Home and Family Sundays.

Gracious Spirit, Dwell with Me—K. Lee Scott. This is an ideal setting
that can be used in many ways, including Confirmation. The range of the flowing
