Format : Vocal Score
This jaunty choral composition gallops off the page with a distinctive accompaniment that instantly draws you in. The vocal lines are refined and memorable with motifs that are easily absorbed. A contrasting B section offers a slower version of O For a Thousand Tongues To Sing bringing a refreshing viewpoint to this beloved hymn of the faith. A festive recapitulation drives the anthem to a satisfying conclusion. A wonderful choice for an opening choral flourish!

This anthem reminds us that hymns of praise have been sung to Jesus from the beginning of time and will be offered up through all eternity: Heav’n with alleluias rang when creation was begun…God will make new heav’ns and earth; songs of praise shall hail their birth. Mary’s noble setting of Joshua’s memorable melody ends with a burst of joy and praise.
