Mark Austin and Lloyd Larson have given us a singular song for Palm Sunday with this new anthem. The distinctive violin obbligato creates a special spirit and the easily sung vocal parts will ease learning as your choir preparesfor its Easter responsibilities. This is wonderful music from one of our finest writers.

Lloyd Larson put on his most distinguished and regal robes when he composed this piece. Using a text by the revered theologian Thomas Troeger and poet John Oxenham Larson presents a magnificent theme. The St. Peter hymn tune (In Christ There Is No East Or West)with congregation crowns the anthem beautifully. Scored with optional brass and percussion this commission praises God and honors our unity in Christ.

Lloyd Larson uses rhythm and melody beautifully to convey the message of Psalm 100. After a legato section the anthem blends into a fresh setting of the Doxology followed by a reprise of the opening theme. Use as a call toworship or full anthem throughout the year.
