Enjoy the old-time gospel feel of this traditional spiritual, arranged by Joanna Mills for soloist(s) + SATB choir. The solo could easily be shared between several singers in any section as it is set in an accessible range (D5 - D4 - Basses or Baritones sing it an octave lower). This arrangement features a fun call-and-response format, with some back-up harmonies that your choir will love singing, and starts and finishes with a building vamp section. Perfect for Black History Month services or assemblies, or services about peace and justice.
