CGA1126 Blessed Be the Lord
Description
This gentle anthem, based on Psalm 72:18-19, offers a fitting ascription of praise to the One "who alone does wondrous things". The simple melody lies comfortably within a one-octave range while also finding strong support from the keyboard accompaniment. Sung in unison, the anthem works well for younger and/or older children's choirs. Budding two part choirs, however, will enjoy the final section of the piece that offers the chance for two part singing.
Voicing: Unison/Two part with keyboard and optional C treble instrument
Composer: Timothy Shaw
Lectionary: Year A - Advent - Second Sunday of Advent
Scripture: Psalm 72:18-19
