From the sprightly opening gesture of the introduction, this anthem reaches out to delight and invigorate. The main theme is the familiar DIX tune, creatively joined with an alternate text to offer a vivid reminder of God's blessings. This pairing features dazzling figurations in the textures of the piano/orchestra as each verse comes alive in a dynamic dance of praise and gratitude. Crowned with a joyful “Alleluia!” this sacred choral song will put a joyful finishing touch on your Thanksgiving worship. Score and Parts (fl 1-2, ob, cl 1-2, bn, perc 1-2, hp, vn 1-2, va, vc, db) available as a digital download. Part for Handbells (3 oct.) also available as a digital download.
