LIVE YOUR LOVEJoseph M. Martin/Stacey NordmeyerUses: Benediction, General, Pentecost Scripture: Psalm 63:3; Ephesians 5:2;

I Thessalonians 3:12This call to purpose is instantly appealing. A charming melody arches with sincere expression, rising and falling with words of challenge and commitment. Easily learned by the choir as a final blessing, the song can also be used with the

congregation as a community benediction, affirming the mission of the church as the gathered depart into service.35031296 SATB ......................................................................... $2.10

THE BEST OF BOCK

THE BEST OF BOCKTHE RESURRECTION OF CHRISTChris Anderson/Richard NicholsPowerful and triumphant are words that best describe this new Easter anthem by Richard Nichols. Chris Anderson, a pastor and award-winning hymn lyricist, has teamed up with Mr. Nichols before, and always with winning results. The optional regal brass and percussion bring an affirming sound of victory to this hymn-styled anthem. Medium in difficulty, a glorious soprano

descant crowns this stately Easter piece.00203445 SATB ........................................................................ $2.3500203446 Brass/Percussion ..................................................... $35.00

THE LENTEN ROSEDiane Hannibal“Lo, How A Rose Ee’r Blooming” has long been a favorite Advent hymn for its poetic beauty and haunting melody. Diane Hannibal has cleverly and appropriately created new words to that very melody that advance it to the Lenten season. She surrounds the carol with her own haunting melody and ancient-sounding words. A plaintive anthem for Lent or Communion, it is medium in difficulty.00203444 SATB ........................................................................ $2.10

PALMS OF PRAISEPatricia Mock/arr. Faye LópezThe triumphant ride into Jerusalem is such a wonderful day to celebrate. The words and song of Patricia Mock set us into the fervor of the festive crowd, raising our palms in praise. Arranged by Faye López, the “Hosannas” ring forth joyfully. Medium in difficulty.00203453 SATB ........................................................................ $2.10

THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTChris Anderson/Richard NicholsWith a beautiful Pentecost text from Chris Anderson, Richard Nichols has given us a gentle and moving hymn-styled anthem. A simple solo voice introduces the first essence of the Holy Spirit while the choir provides a warm accompaniment. Each verse commences with more attributes of the Holy Spirit, each verse growing in voices and strength. The closing

statement returns softly to the solo voice and supporting choir. Medium in difficulty.00203447 SATB a cappella ....................................................... $2.10

THE BLOOD OF JESUSRobert Lowry/Daniel MattixUsing the words of Robert Lowry’s beloved hymn “Nothing But the Blood,” Daniel Mattix has created new music and arranged it in a choral setting. The piano accompaniment works well, but the string quartet version is truly the best. The minor tonality and the phrasing of the melodic lines both carry the strong emotions of the piece. At the end we even hear a touch of the original hymn smuggled into the closing phrase. Easy to Medium, for communion or Lent.00159798 SATB ........................................................................ $2.1000159799 String Quartet ........................................................ $35.00

HEAR THE PRAYERS FOR OUR CHILDRENPatricia Mock/arr. Faye LópezThe prayer request is a common one, “Keep our children safe and may they follow You, O Lord.” Patricia Mock’s words and melody carry a parent’s earnest plea, and Faye López has arranged it masterfully for choir and piano. The closing line says it all: “Lord, hear our prayers for Your children.” Medium in difficulty.

SPRINGS OF FLOWING WATERAnthony DohertyAnthony Doherty sets refreshing music to the longing of the deer and the flowing water of the springs. The familiar Psalm text is renewed into a prayer of praise and honor, a fervent expression that is useful in almost any service of worship. Medium difficulty.00203455 SATB a cappella ....................................................... $1.95

WHEN JESUS PRAYEDPatricia Mock/Richard NicholsJesus’ prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane is often set in a dark and lonely tone. Patricia Mock and Richard Nichols bring us into a prayer for the entire world. Every note of the melody seems to move us to the moment that the prayer is uttered - a rich and meaningful moment in text and harmony. The best is truly saved for last when we learn this universal prayer is also for

each one of us. Medium in difficulty.00203454 SATB ........................................................................ $2.35

HEAVENLY KINGAnthony DohertyThe text is taken from a Byzantine hymn, but all the music is created by the skillful composer, Anthony Doherty. Chanting some of the many names of God, the opening fanfare begins quietly in D minor and gradually builds to a glorious A major chord. The anthem is both a song of praise and a prayer for salvation that returns effectively to the opening style but in reverse, ending softly and reverently. Medium.00160212 SATB ........................................................................ $2.35

THE DAY OF RESURRECTIONThomas MatthewsThomas Matthews is recognized as one of the great American church composers of the 20th century. This majestic Easter anthem has been a favorite for many years.

Matthews’ new music has a splendid

dignity for a risen Lord. Medium difficulty.00203456 SATB/opt. Trumpet .................................................. $2.35

Dan Forrest

ABIDEDan ForrestThe writings of American poet Jake Adam York (1972-2012) are not broadly known, much due in part to his untimely death at the age of 40. In this setting of York’s most successful work Dan Forrest thoroughly illuminates the elegiac sentiment of the poem through both the voices and the piano. This is a substantial work and could find great meaning at a funeral or time of

mourning, Memorial Day event, or community celebration of life or love.00196453 SATB ........................................................................$2.65

JACOB’S LADDERarr. Brandon BoydThis call and response spiritual has long been a popular folk hymn found in both worship and concert settings. Here, Brandon Boyd sets the work for mixed choir and piano in an energetic gospel style. The middle section provides a lyrical contrast calling on the tune “Is There Anybody Here.”00200935 SATB ......................................... $2.45

MY SONG IS LOVE UNKNOWNDwight GustafsonThe choral compositions of the late Dwight Gustafson were filled with beautiful melodies, colorful harmonic language and accompaniments that supported the voices and the texts. This is no exception. Edited by Gustafson’s grandson, Trevor Manor, this posthumous publication could find use on Passion or Palm Sunday or during Lent.

COME TO ME AND FIND RESTKevin MemleyA beckoning melody carries the words from Matthew 11, “Come to Me and I will give you rest.” Memley is a craftsman of notes, both for the singer and the accompanist. In many ways this is a simple song, but the message needs to be, inviting us to a place of serenity. Easy to Medium difficulty for Communion or Lent.00204078 SATB ......................................... $2.10

GOD IS WITH USNick Strimple“God Is with Us” is the third of Five Easy Hymn Anthems on Original Texts and Tunes, a collection created as a somewhat delayed reaction to 9/11.

Congregational participation is optional.
