Composer’s Notes

This has been one of my best selling anthems with MorningStar since it was published in 1992. John Ferguson premiered it with Cantorei at St. Olaf College. The choral parts are not difficult, while the organ part is a bit more to work up but great fun to play. It has been included in hundreds of worship settings, including several performances by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.
