A joyful song of the Christmas season with piano and lyrics for a great solo.  When this Christmas song was first written, it was called 'Christmas Time Is Here', which is the name of the video I did at that time.  Since that is the name of the well-known Snoopy Christmas song, this piece is now called 'As Christmas Draws Near'.  .

Near to the Heart of God is a song about drawing close to Him. If we do this then He will draw close to us. Then we can be near to the heart of God. One way to do this is spending time with Jesus in the word and in prayer daily.But we can draw near to Him at any time.

Whether its food, alcohol, drugs, or viewing pornography. Addictions destroy the lives of everyone around them.  I look at addictions as if they were little devils that have us down and are jumping on top of us and won’t let us get up.   Little by little the addicted and all of his friends and family lose faith, hope, love, peace, joy, and self respect.  The shame of addiction keeps them in despair.  They constantly have  voices in their heads that say you’re no good, you’re no good, do you hear me, you’re no good.  Well I’m here to tell you that is a lie.  You are good.  You are worth something.  Life , family, love, peace, joy.  Those are all things that are worth fighting for. Take them back.  You are not unworthy. You can fight the addiction. You have made mistakes that are correctable.  God tells us to resist the devil and he will flee from you. Then God says to draw near unto Him and He will draw near unto you. When  God draws close  to us, we will recieve His strength and power to leave the addiction behind. With Him we can overcome anything.

He Will Lead Me Home (choral church anthem composed in 2023)

The Inspiration

A few Easter seasons ago, during one of our Tuesday Choir rehearsals, we were preparing for “Good Shepherd Sunday�. Diane our Choir director commented “there are very few Good Shepherd pieces to choose from�. One of our sopranos replied “Let's write our own�. I made note of it and this past year finally found the time and inspiration to give it a try. I did my usual research on the subject matter and then found a drawing of a Shepherd standing at the top of a hill with his sheep lined up behind him. Leaning on his staff the Shepherd was contemplating the safest route home. Upon his decision he looked back and called to his sheep. 

The Music

The music begins with a piano introduction depicting the Shepherd standing at the top of the hill contemplating the safest route home, as noted earlier. Stately in nature it features a simple melodic idea, played by the right hand, which is then answered by a series of majestic chords. This “back and forth� continues until it reaches its climax at a D flat major chord against a slur from a high G to F. At this point we hear what will be a reoccurring chordal theme of C major to F major and later C minor to F major. The accompaniment begins, now in three quarter time signifying the sheep beginning to move in response to the shepherds call. The verse melody is drawn from the opening three notes of the introduction but with a different rhythm and repeats it self with underlying harmonic changes. The melody and chord structure is somewhat impressionistic in nature. Lyrically a contrast is drawn between how the Shepherd (Jesus) provides for his sheep (followers) and how God provides for the “sheep� (animals) through nature. As the verse comes to an end we are lead to the realization that “the shepherd is the Lord our King, the Good Shepherd King�. The refrain begins with the tenor continuing to solo on the main melody. �He Will Lead Home� is realized and proclaimed! A soprano descant is added for contrast. Harmonically the music makes use of the various minor key options, “melodic, harmonic and natural�. The refrain concludes proclaiming “The Good Shepherds the Way He's our Life!�. The second verse shadows the thought pattern of verse one leading to the refrain once more but this time a bridge is introduced to add drama with the piano playing a significant role. A return to the refrain is varied with the tenor singing a portion of it against softly played chords; but then resumes its rhythmic drive to its ultimate conclusion by repeating “the Good Shepherds the Way He's our Life!�.

Program Notes

Voicing can be varied based on what types of singers are available. For example this could be sung by 2 tenors with one singing the descant down an octave. Finally as noted in the score, the intro is optional though I prefer it be played; the shepherd contemplating a safe route is important in the music with its contrast to the verse music and important in our life of faith.
