Designed to open the service, this majestic acclamation of gratitude and praise is the perfect way to begin Thanksgiving Sunday or any celebration when the worship theme calls for it. A brilliant choral introit flows seamlessly into "We Gather Together to Ask the Lord's Blessing," with optional congregational participation. An idiomatic optional trumpet part joins in on the last verse, as choir and organ finish off with a brief but resounding coda. B-flat trumpet and reproducible congregational parts are included.
