We Praise You and Acknowledge You, O God

Here is a marvelous festival setting of Gustav Holst's hymntune Thaxted that uses the text of the complete Te Deum for a glorious effect. Scored for mixed choir, keyboard and full orchestra, the anthem also includes a part for congregational singing and a soaring soprano descant on the final verse. Use this anthem on festive Sundays, Eastertide, or Christ the King Sunday for a glimpse of heaven in your sanctuary.
