Let There Be Peace on Earth

Not to be missed, this exquisite setting of the hymn tune ABERYSTWYTH is lyric, haunting, and rich in harmonic depth. While playable on handbells alone, it is best heard with optional piano and flute or oboe. Use for Lent or general worship, or for Advent using the title Watchman, Tell Us of the Night. Approachable by intermediate ensembles, it will challenge all ensembles to bring their utmost musicality to the performance!

Jesus, Lover of My Soul

This setting of the exuberant hymn LLANFAIR begins with new music centering on the foundational truth of Romans 8: "If God be for us, who can be against us?"  Building in intensity as it declares Christ's victory, the work comes to a thrilling culmination as the final verse is sung with a soprano descant using the Romans passage as its crown jewel. Sensible vocal ranges, two brass players, percussion, organ and optional piano allow for the work to be presented with choirs of any size. Absolutely glorious!

Hail the Day That Sees Him Rise

This beautifully written anthem for Christmas is based on Gelobet seist du, Jesu Christ from a chorale written by Martin Luther and first published in 1524. Truly accessible for large or small choirs, this anthem is exceptional!

All Praise to Thee

This tender hymn of praise reminds us that in the end we are all weak and broken and that the Heavenly Father deals lovingly and mercifully with all of His children.

A fitting tribute for memorial services and services of remembrance.

Lord of the Small

Beginning ensembles will love this setting of the tune HAMBURG that uses the echo technique very effectively. Despite having no bell changes and no notes shorter than quarter notes, this arrangement still has a full, lush sound and gives careful treatment of the melody.

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

2-3 Octave Handbells

This tender melody is supported by a simple piano accompaniment and well-crafted choral lines in an original concert work that helps to process the emotions associated with grief. The warm, comforting selection works as a memorial or as a general concert selection, singing: "I'll sing for you because I need to, right now this is all I know; I'll sing so we will not forget you, I will sing you home."
