Original anthem This jubilant new choral setting of Psalm 96 is set in a spirited 6/8 meter. Written in an A-B-A form, the first section has an engaging and robust melody, which invites us to Sing to the Lord a new song! The middle section is a capella, in 4/4, evoking a more reflective mode, asking us to worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness. This festive anthem is lush with nuance in dynamics and blend and is perfect for an introit or for general use throughout the year.

David T. Clydesdale and Steve Moore have written a Christmas musical that is certain to tug at your heart. That's the Good News! takes a sentimental, honest look at how Christ can bring hope and peace to a hurting world. That's the Good News! tells the story of Will, a radio news announcer in the small town of Pinckney, Nebraska as he faces his first Christmas without his wife of 40 years. Because of her death, Will looks at the world in a different light, especially the news he reads everyday of murder and theft and struggles with bad things happening to good and innocent people. Through a series of events and interaction with key people in his life, Will finds true peace on earth. This drama can be easily staged and additional biblical characters can enter throughout the production to create a live nativity scene.

In the past twenty years, worship styles in many churches have transformed, emphasizing a personal worship that strives for intimacy with the Father. This renewal led some ministries, perhaps unintentionally, to abandon the great hymns of our faith in favor of newly composed worship songs. Other ministries, in an effort to create a balanced worship style, mixed the new with the old, sometimes with results that only amplified the differences between the two. Hymns for Praise & Worship bridges the stylistic gap between modern-day worship songs and the hymns of our Christian heritage. A select advisory board of active music ministers, Word Music staff and key choral arrangers were assembled to pinpoint fifty-six hymns from the vast array of hymnody, not only for their musical quality, but for the messages that they bring to worshippers today. Veteran choral arrangers John E. Coates and Travis Cottrell have been creating new settings of hymns for their own congregations for years. Their experience as worship leaders brought not only musicality, but also congregational and choral pragmatism to each new arrangement in Hymns for Praise & Worship. With all of the same editions and features as the Songs for Praise & Worship series, this collection is designed to work hand-in-hand with existing resources for worship. Various stylistic changes make these settings flow easily, appeal to the modern ear, and correlate with the styles of contemporary praise & worship songs. Throughout this book you will encounter variations from traditional time signatures, intuitive syncopated rhythms, and substituted chords and harmonies. Even the few hymns with more traditional settings are treated in a manner that takes the congregation on a journey through the verses, sometimes in a more through-composed manner, and usually culminating in a climactic conclusion. Each of the changes was not implemented arbitrarily, but with the goal of making the timeless messages of each hymn leap from the page in new and exciting ways. Two added features of Hymns for Praise & Worship are the demonstration and accompaniment recordings. While the songs in the collection are well known, the new arrangements are not. The staff of Word Music felt that it was vital to provide audible resources to teach and lead worship to best communicate the desires of the arrangers. All of the core editions (Choir/Worship Team, Worship Planner, Keyboard Edition, Guitar Edition) reflect the verses and voicings used on the recordings.

You will not want to miss the newest Christmas musical from David T. Clydesdale and Clydesdale Music Group, Hope of the Broken World. Created by Dave Clark and David T. Clydesdale, this new musical is simply bursting with good news and great joy. Clydesdale's immense versatility and skill is showcased in the variety of music styles represented and Dave Clark's songwriting and thoughtful narration is heart-warming and hopeful. Together, these two creative giants of Christian music have fashioned a truly unforgettable Christmas worship experience.

Titled after the song made popular by Selah, Hope of the Broken World is a glorious mixture of more traditional SATB choral works in Let There Be Joy and Sing We Gloria, the innocence of children's voices in the ever popular A Strange Way to Save the World, the hauntingly beautiful Who Could Imagine a King?, the fun gospel styling of When the Little Baby Boy Was Born and O Bethlehem Mornin'. With multiple solo opportunities and children's choir throughout, it is ideal for most choirs and the 45 minute running time makes it the perfect length for any Christmas performance venue. This year at Christmas, share with your community the Hope of the Broken World.

Nominated for three GRAMMY Awards (Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Pop Solo Performance), Dua Lipa's hot hit is easily called nu-disco---a pop genre inspired by '70s disco and '80s electronic dance music. This track boasts a percolating funk bassline with strong synth chords, dynamic string bursts, and that signature cowbell in the chorus. As an option, feature a confident alto soloist at the beginning and toward the end of this perky post-breakup song that celebrates newly found independence.

Ginge r Breadhouse, Carolyn Bells, Holly Branch, Candy Cane, Mary, and...Ned, Ted and Jed! These are a few of the names to be found among the cast of the new Simply WordKidz Christmas musical, The Christmas Cross! Created by Jeff Slaughter, with tracks produced and arranged by the team of Preston and Spencer Dalton, The Christmas Cross is a super-easy-to-learn, 27-minute musical designed to help you celebrate the season with the perfect setting for your kids choir!

In the opening scene, Miss Carolyn Bells, our children's choir director, is leading the kids through their first rehearsal for this year's Christmas Extravaganza. As they begin to share their thoughts on Christmas, the heart of the story comes to the forefront as Mary begins to tell everyone about the Christmas Cross - a very special ornament with special significance - an heirloom, handed down by her grandmother. As she explains the meaning behind the ornament...You can't have Christmas without the Cross..., this fun, lighthearted musical is beautifully and simply transformed into a powerful message about the love of God and the message of the Gospel.

Full of great new songs, in tandem with traditional carols and a humor-filled, Biblically-sound script, The Christmas Cross highlights Jeff Slaughter's signature brand of creativity. And, for the first time, he brings his unique style and infectious spirit to the Simply WordKidz Series, a fresh line of EZ-to-Sing-EZ-to-Perform musicals designed for both excellence and accessibility by the smallest of choirs, or for choirs with little rehearsal time. Bring an extra dose of Christmas cheer to your performance through the use of the production-enhancing DVD Accompaniment Track available, from WordKidz.
