Song List: Affirmation Of The Word Offertory Sentence Dismissal Sentence Call To Worship Prayer Or General Response Amen

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
Don't Forget the Sabbath
Happy Sabbath Day
Holy Sabbath Day of Rest
Jehovah's Rest
