This beautiful prayer is the Aaronic Blessing, given by Moses to Aaron, for the people of God. I wanted it to be uncomplicated and accessible, and as far as possible to follow the rhythms of speech. This version is for 2-part choir, S and A, with an optional top note, and piano accompaniment.The singing is interspersed by a simple piano motif symbolising cheerfulness.I wrote it (proud mama) to mark this year's ordination to Deacon of my daughter. It's one of her favourite prayers.(Though she says the prayer she uses most often is Help!).

Sharon Wilson #3872557. Published by Sharon Wilson (A0.565306). This Scripture song based on Psalm 57 verses 1 and 7-10 is formatted for a SOPRANO-ALTO or 2-part Choir with piano accompaniment. This 2-part arrangement is in the key of G major with the vocal ranges the same for both parts: the first B below middle C to the first B above middle C (B3 to B4). The limited, moderate vocal range makes this song accessible to just about every combination of voices (SA, AA, AB, TB, etc.). This is a straight-forward arrangement with the SOPRANO (Part 1) carrying the melody throughout and the ALTO (Part 2) adding a non-complex harmony. Duration 3:00.This Psalm is a prayer written by David while in a cave when he was fleeing from Saul (1 Samuel 22). It is presented here as a song of meditation and praise, drawing the listeners into an atmosphere of prayer and trust in God. The simplicity of the melody allows the vocalists to focus on the words and dynamics as the audience is drawn to the beauty of God's Word expressed musically. The purchase price includes the 9-page combined score with both vocal and piano parts on each page plus a separate VOCALS only score (4 pages) and a PIANO only score (3 pages). For duet use where only one copy is needed, this arrangement is also available as a single purchase.The lyrics were adapted from the King James Version (KJV) and the World English Version (WEB) and are printed below:Lyrics:VERSE 1Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me,For my soul takes refuge in you,In the shadow of your wings.Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me, For in the shadow of your wingsMy soul will always findRefuge, refuge, refuge in You.VERSE 2My heart is fixed on you, O God, my heart is fixed on you.I’ll sing and give you praises.I’ll wake up at dawn and give you thanks.I’ll sing your praises to all people,For your love is great.You loving kindness reaches far beyond the starry skies.Wake up, wake up, wake up and sing.ENDINGBe merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me,For my soul takes refuge in the shadow of your wings.For my soul takes refuge in the shadow of your wings.

Maple Dust The town is bright, it is the trees With all the red and yellow leaves. They swirl around like fairy dust And top the ground with golden crust. The wind is cruel, it takes the leaves To far-off places in their dreams, But where they go, it’s far from home, And now the leaves are all alone. In my mind I wish to keep, The memory of fall so deep, The beauty of its golden leaves That flutter softly to the eaves. © 2007 Airlie Clarke My niece wrote this poem as a young girl when inspired by autumn in Ancaster, Ontario. The poetry resurfaced many years later in her late grandmother’s treasured possessions. 2012, Martha Hill Duncan Solo vocal version was Winner of 2009 CFMTA Vocal Writing Competition

Choral Choir (2-Part) - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.844485 Composed by Phil Beaman. Christian,Holiday,Sacred,World. Octavo. 10 pages. Phil Beaman #3428681. Published by Phil Beaman (A0.844485). Jubilee of Thanks was commissioned for the Grenada National Service of Thanksgiving to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain. Although heavily based on traditional coronation music it is generic enough to be suitable for any service of Thanksgiving or Celebration.Here is the description found inside the cover of the conductor's score:In order to gain inspiration and insight into this commission I researched British Coronations past and present. One of the oldest traditions is the use of Handel's oratorio Zadok the Priest. This 144-page composition was written for the coronation of King George II in 1727 and has been used at every coronation since. Thus I began my composition with a Handelian style section, borrowing a phrase from Zadok the Priest and developing it into a fanfare opening. Into this section I interjected the traditional cry of Long live the Queen, but set it in the old church Latin.The middle section arranges the hymn Now Thank We All Our God, originally written in 1663. This hymn is regarded all across Europe as the official anthem for services of National Thanksgiving. I created different settings for all three verses. Another tradition of British coronations is the use of Psalms 100 and 120. I have taken just one line from each Psalm and woven it into the hymn as a descant or antiphon.The final section is a Hallelujah Chorus fusing tradition with local flavour by using soca rhythms. In a sly nod to the opening section the very last choral Alleluia is straight from Handel's Messiah.Phil BeamanMarch 2012The choir is in 2 part but much of it unison since it was intended for a massed choir with little rehearsal. Interest comes from the changing styles of each section, 7 key changes, 3 meter changes, and the 2 Trumpets accompanying. A 4 minute easy piece of thanks and celebration.This entry contains the 10 pages of Choral Parts in a Lead Sheet format with just lyrics and melody of the Choir Parts. For convenience a separate entry at SO.309229 contains 30 pages of Conductors Score, 7 pages Keyboard Part, and 2 pages @ Trumpet Parts.

Čapek joined the Unitarian Church while living in the U.S. escaping unwanted government pressure over his political and religious views.

During World War II, Čapek was accused of treason and sent to the Dachau concentration camp. He was put to death in 1942.The lyrics describe a traveler eager to the return home after a long journey. The journey is full of wonder and as it nears its end the anticipation grows. During the last stanza, Čapek reveals the story traces the traveler's journey through life and werealize how far the they have come.

This social division has been compounded by extreme social and physical isolation during the COVID-19 crisis. In light of these developments, I felt that this piece’s message was needed now in 2020 more than ever. The tune Prospect is by far one of the most beautiful American melodies from the 1800s. The text was inspired by the beauty of human connection and the feelings we experience when parting ways: sadness and happy remembrance.
