The Church's One Foundation

SATB Octavo

Hampton Roads Music Group, LLC

This stunningly expressive work was commissioned by a number of high school choir programs forced to cancel concerts due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Inspiring and reflective, the rich harmonies capture both a sense of poignancy and hope. An optional descant soars above the choir, adding a sense of expansiveness: "Your voice brings hope!"

You Are My Refuge

SATB Octavo A Cappella Version

Hope Publishing Company

This is a good, solid anthem with a driving, rhythmic accompaniment and optional trumpet duet accompaniment. Usable for any service, it has an easy-to-sing melody and a nice text from Psalm 46. Quality material without being difficult, this anthem will be performed again and again.

God Is Our Refuge

Original music is combined with Susan Boersma's text and the familiar strains of O God Our Help in Ages Past (ST. ANNE) to create a stirring and noble expression of God's eternal reign. "Yesterday, today, forever ... God remains the sure foundation, steadfast and unshakeable, forevermore." The congregation is invited to join the singing. Parts for organ, brass quintet/percussion or full orchestra are available from the publisher.

Forevermore

O Word of God

Calling the believer to humility and service, this song is appropriate any time of the year, but especially for Reformation and moments of commitment.

New harmonies and ambient electric guitar accompaniment create an ancient/modern feel, giving new life to this classic hymn.

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

Series

James Quinn's text is a meditation on the Word of God made flesh. It speaks to us about God's love for us through his Crucifixion. Each verse is scored slightly differently to allow for the piece to build towards the end. Parts for guitar and solo instrument in C 1 and 2 are included.

Word of God, Come Down on Earth

The body of Christ - the church - is one of God's greatest gifts to believers. This song draws comparisons between the beauty of God's creation and the magnificence of His church. The parts are written as triumphant statements of faith in a verse and refrain style. The glorious orchestration creates a foundation for the scripture-filled lyrics and biblical imagery.

Let There Be the Church

With a powerful orchestral accompaniment, this worshipful anthem celebrates the solid rock of faith on which we stand. Worthy of being sung throughout the year, majestic and powerful melodies are supported with full and bold harmonies.

On This Rock We Stand

Augsburg Publishing

This large-scale anthem creatively adapts the text O God, Our Help in Ages Past and pairs it with exciting original music that incorporates fragments of the tune ST. ANNE. A soaring melodic refrain provides the foundation of the anthem that speaks of God's constancy in our lives. Scored for both piano accompaniment and separately for oboe, flute, string quartet, and organ.

From Generation to Generation

This earnest prayer for Christ to build His church also offers encouragement to Christians by reflecting on Christ's promise never to leave or forsake us. This song has a hymnlike feel in the part writing with a very short section of divisi. The marchlike instrumentation encourages the believer to press on even in adversity. An obbligato part is also available.

Lord, Build Your Church

This anthem challenges us to listen, learn, minister, and serve. The music is melodic and restrained, allowing the text to speak. The vocals are approachable and include a nicely contrasting a cappella section, and the piano adds moments of harmonic interest.
