English. Text Source: Alas! and Did My Savior Bleed?, Isaac Watts, 1674-1748, alt., At the Cross, Ralph E. Hudson, 1843-1901, alt. Text by Isaac Watts.
“At the Cross†contains the very rich texts of Isaac Watts and Ralph Hudson. My desire is to treat each verse with utmost respect by highlighting—through music—the suffering, shame, hope, beauty, and glory of the cross. The cross embodies all of these attributes. You will notice there is a somberness that begins at m. 84, mirroring the darkness that ensued while Christ hung on the cross (Mark 15:33). A “darker†sound from the altos is encouraged. This is the turning point in the song, preparing the singers for the response to such a sacrifice. Although the text speaks of grief and debt (starting at m. 93), one can see the hope that builds, with the realization that complete surrender is the only response to such a sacrifice. Much thought and energy (under control) should be expended to aid this verse in building to the climactic point of the song, when hope is found in the cross and the burden has been lifted.

Songs have forever been at the heart of God’s Church. They help build our faith, tell of the rich, full, grace of our Savior, and speak of our devotion and allegiance to Him; songs express our thoughts and feelings and needs in a way that mere words never can. Songs allow us to lift our voice to declare that He alone is worthy of our praise, He alone is the one true God and King, and He alone has provided a way to salvation for a lost and dying world. The songs included in this new Word Music & Church Resources Choral Collection are Songs the Church Loves to Sing! Across decades, styles and sounds have changed, but the impact songs have on God’s people is undeniable and unmistakable. Through the 70s, 80s, and 90s, a lexicon of Christian songs took their place beside the time-honored hymns of the church, songs that became the voice of new generations of believers, songs that the church still loves to sing. This Choral Collection, arranged and orchestrated by Marty Parks, is a tribute to those songs. We hope and believe this church music resource will find its place in your church music library and will be used as a tool of outreach and ministry to proclaim your love and adoration for the Lord, giving voice to people everywhere; a voice with which to keep singing these Songs the Church Loves to Sing!
