Uses: General, Lent Scripture: Psalm 27:1; Isaiah 12:2; John 8:12 This unique anthem offers a pleasing mixture of Latin phrases with an original lyric that celebrates Christ as the Light of the World and explores the intimacy of that Light in our hearts. The music moves with unhurried beauty, warming the text with interesting sonorities and effective textures. While it could be programmed year round, this work is especially useful during Lent and Holy Week. Remarkable! Score and Parts (ob, vn, vc) available as a digital download.
Uses: Advent Scripture: Genesis 49:18, Psalm 62:1, Isaiah 25:9, Revelation 22:7-21, Isaiah 35:1-10 This worshipful invitation brings the comfort of the Savior's love to the heart of the listener. The gentle rocking back and forth from major to minor suggests the deep longing of the soul while words of promise form a blanket around our sincere prayers for a relationship with God. The final quote from Away in a Manger is a masterful moment that brings the song to a quiescent and meaningful conclusion. Score and Parts (ob, hn, tbn 1-2, perc, syn, vn, vc) available on CD-ROM and as a digital download.
