Composed for ease of preparation, this anthem, based on Lowell Mason's familiar hymn tune and the words of Samuel Wolcott, may be rehearsed and ready to perform in one Sunday morning. Perfect for the first Sunday back, a special event, or any other occasion when you don't have much time to prepare. While, everyone will recognize the tune throughout, the a-capella, third verse, is in 4/4 with easily accomplished harmonic variations. The last verse provides a majestic and exciting accompaniment, unison choir, and a soaring descant, followed by a short and surprising coda.

This anthem celebrates singing, music, and service, and is also appropriate for topics including Service, Mission, and Celebration of a Call.
