By Twila Paris. John 1:29 - Matthew 27:27 - Matthew 27:41 - Revelation 5:12.

Popular song by Twila Paris Lloyd Larson's earnest, sensitive setting for Twila Paris' popular song was Hope's top-seller in 2001. Appropriate for Lent, Holy Week, baptism, and special dedication or confirmation services, this blockbuster arrangement is now available in SATB, SAB and Two-Part Mixed voicings. Accompaniment can be provided by keyboard, rhythm, CD track or handbell choir. The new optional handbell accompaniment can also stand alone as a setting for 3-5 octaves of bells. The orchestration includes parts for two flutes and one oboe; three trumpets, two horns, two trombones and a tuba; percussion (bells, mark tree, shaker, timpani) and harp; strings and shared rhythm part (piano, acoustic guitar, electric bass, drum kit).

This is the first movement of Part 2, Christ's Passion, of Handel's oratorio, The Messiah.

Flutes 1 - 4 represent the SATB chorus, and the lower parts represent the orchestral parts. That said, Flutes 5 and 6 are more diffcult because they are playing the violin parts, which include more ornamentation than the voice parts.

Scored for 6 C, alto, bass, and optional contrabass flutes.

This is a powerful piece to add to your Easter recital program.

Behold the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sins of the world.
