This collection of 20 hymns and choruses is arranged for any size group from a small gathering of family and friends to an entire congregation. The theme of each song centers on the celebration of God's Sabbath Day.

Each song is presented in two formats:
1) a reproducible SATB score in the usual 2-staff hymn format
2) a piano accompaniment score with melody line and lyrics which includes an introduction, repeat (short interlude between verses), and an ending

The piano accompaniment is not overly difficult and follows the melody while adding variation in the bass clef and filling out chords that compliment the 4-part harmony of the vocal score. This collection contains an eclectic set of hymns and choruses, many from long ago, and provides an excellent means for inspiring revival and affirmation of the blessings experienced through Sabbath rest and worship.

Each song is also available separately with accompanying preview pages and audio samples.

Titles include:
Blessed Sabbath Day
Come and Rest
The Dawn of God's Dear Sabbath

Since the time of his childhood in Transylvania, Ligeti had been familiar with both Hungarian and Romanian folk music. He makes reference to approximately fifty folk song arrangements similar to Né.gy lakodalmi tá.nc which he had completed in the early phases of his compositional career. .
The four individual song texts highlight a wide range of aspects of a wedding. The first poem describes the bride's happiness and how beautifully she will be dressed, but also displays her hesitance, insecurity and fear of a future as a ".bird in a cage".. In the second poem, the bride is unwilling to enter into marriage. she fears that the preparations which have been undertaken are insufficent. The young girl in the third poem is full of pride and wishes to be the bride, ".the most seemly, to look at with pride"., but also naturally hopes that she ".will yield a flower, not just a dry stalk".. The subject of the final poem is the bridgeroom whose thoughts on his wedding are full of optimism if his uncle plays the violin at the ceremony.
