ADULT CHOIR
GENERAL ANTHEMS
Wade in the Water
arr. Mark Hayes.
Here's a superb choral arrangement of this classic spiritual! It opens with a
choral fanfare-like section and progresses through several swinging sections to a
climactic finish. This is Mark Hayes at his very best. There are many opportunities
for brief solos, and the optional instrumental parts and CD are outstanding!

We Are the Church
Heather Sorenson.
This is a strong anthem that challenges the church to find her unity and calling.
The chorus brings the theme into focus: "We are the Church, we are the
Bride, we are the lost who've been fully justified." There is a strong crescendo
of purpose as this piece develops, and the final chorus sings like a sacred
concerto with piano and choir proclaiming confidence in Christ. Some vocal
divisi allows larger groups to fully engage, while the thoughtful part-writing and
ranges encourage smaller ensembles.

What God Ordains
Josh Bauder.
Opening with a lyric and gentle soprano solo, What God Ordains is a stunning
melodic and meaningful addition to the sacred repertoire. Musically the piece
flows from a solo through a cappella, SATB and joyous exalted closing verses to a
quiet tag ending. The depth of this setting will be an effective tool in your ministry.

What You Gonna Preach?
Pepper Choplin.
Here's a modern gospel-styled original that works well a cappella but also has
an optional accompaniment for churches wanting the support of instruments.
Alive with attitude, this one is a sermon in song with the very musical syntax
taking an almost oratory approach. Innovative!

setting. This offering is useful for many worship occasions where comfort and
hope are the focus.

Time for Turning
Craig Courtney.
Inspired by the scriptural passage of Ecclesiastes 3:1-7, this anthem is a
poignant reminder that in all of the seasons of life we find new meaning and
purpose. The sensitive accompaniment reflects the origin of the traditional
Irish melody, Salley Gardens, from which the anthem is created. Simplicity and
beauty abound.
