Piano,Vocal,Voice - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.921766 Composed by Lisa Waites. Christian,Christmas,Praise & Worship,Sacred. Score. 1 pages. Servant Song Music and Ministry #6617305. Published by Servant Song Music and Ministry (A0.921766). This short, accessible piece of worship music was written as a liturgical response for use during Christian services during the Advent/Christmas/Epiphany seasons of the church calendar. It returns the work of the people TO the people, placing these musical Words of Assurance into the mouths and hearts of the congregation and/or choir, rather than having the minister alone speaking the words of absolution/assurance after the Prayer of Confession. Set in a simple key for beginning accompanists and including chord charts for guitarists (or pianists who prefer to play by reading the melody notes in the RH and playing by chord symbol with their LH), this song has been set in a perfect vocal range for congregational voices and/or church choirs. Melody and harmony parts have been included in the score so that you can divide into soprano/alto parts if you'd like to, but the piece works equally well if you stick to the melody alone. Non-liturgical churches have also appreciated this piece as a way for congregants to respond musically to services on themes such as God's Grace, Forgiveness, Reconciliation, Prodigals, Mercy, and also throughout Advent or whenever the pastor is focusing on themes of Hope, Peace, Joy, Love, etc. Published by Servant Song Music & Ministry, this piece is hot off the press for use in Advent 2021, but watch for an SATB Choral version to follow at Sheet Music Plus in the next week or two! There is also a video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/orgm6VuEJVo which you are free to use for digital or hybrid worship services. The lyrics are Closed Captioned, so your people can learn to sing the piece in rhythm with the piano accompaniment. .
