This is a truly unique and dramatic retelling of the greatest story ever told. Whether performed as a service of worship during Lent or Holy Week or as an awe-inspiring Easter service (with the inclusion of the optional final monologue and chorus), this soul-stirring presentation will touch and enliven congregations from the most liturgical to the most contemporary of traditions. Monologues from Judas, Peter, Pontius Pilate, Simon of Cyrene, Mary, the two thieves crucified with Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and (optionally) John relate the dramatic events from their own perspective and are woven into the fabric and passion of the music. An accompaniment DVD (including all monologues) or an accompaniment CD (music only) is available, as are a Production Guide and a Sound-Effects CD for live presentations. This exciting new work is accessible technically, dramatically and musically, including parts for an SATB choir, unison children's choir, alto and tenor soloist, and nine dramatic characters.

Worth y Is the Lamb! is the compelling story of God's plan to deliver all people from the clutches of sin and death. Lloyd Larson presents this powerful reminder that Isaiah's prophetic words were fulfilled in Jesus: Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows. He was pierced for our transgressions; crushed for our iniquities; upon Him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and by His wounds we are healed (Isaiah 53:4-5). Flexibly conceived for Lent, Holy Week, or Eastertide programming, each of the three sections may be presented during the weeks or days leading up to Easter, or the entire musical may be presented a single worship experience. Small and large choirs alike will find the choral writing appealing and versatile. Accompaniment options ranging from piano only to full orchestra with CD accompaniment or live instruments ensures maximum flexibility for your unique programming needs.

In this powerful offering from Mark Hayes, we journey with Christ through Holy Week, experiencing momentous events that changed history for all of humankind. Mark's distinctive compositional voice adds to the drama of the work. Masterful arrangements of Twila Paris's Lamb of God and Keith Getty and Stuart Townend's The Power of the Cross, along with an unforgettable mezzo soprano solo inspired by Michelangelo's Pieta, contribute to a truly compelling work for Easter worship. This work may be performed during Holy Week by excluding the final movement or in its entirety for Easter and Eastertide. The beautiful piano accompaniment reflects Mark's keyboard artistry, and his masterful orchestration offers an added dimension to the drama. The Power of the Cross provides an artful and poignant reminder of Christ's sacrifice of love, His triumph over death, and His promise of redemption for us all.
