CGA1146 Sing We Hallelujah
Description
This noble anthem is based on the St. Anthony Chorale tune, generally attributed to Franz Joseph Haydn. The unison vocal part may be voiced in a variety of ways using children's choir, adult choir, or combined children's and adult choirs. The well-crafted accompaniment enhances an easy to learn melody providing both support and interest to the vocal line. Based on selected verses from Psalm 98 and Psalm 150, the text reminds us to "sing and praise the Lord forever."
