A Flexible Worship Experience for Advent Through Christmas

Composers: Various
Arrangers: Pepper Choplin, Mary McDonald, Victor C. Johnson, Lloyd Larson, Jay Rouse, Mark Hayes
Format: Book
Voicing: SATB and Piano

God came to Earth in the form of Jesus Christ to shed light in the darkness, bring hope to the hopeless, and instil peace within the restless. This flexible worship experience highlights this fundamental Christian belief and has been assembled for use throughout the Advent and Christmas seasons. It can be presented in its entirety using the proposed sequence, the Advent and Christmas sections can be performed separately (both sections include four titles), or individual anthems can be selectively programmed for services and special events throughout the month of December. Each selection can be presented with piano accompaniment, and many also include optional instrumentation. Optional scripture readings and underscores for these readings are also provided to give additional members of your congregation opportunities for involvement.
