Choral Choir (SSA) - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.774734 By Fleet Foxes. By Robin Pecknold. Arranged by Sandra Millien. Contemporary. Octavo. 9 pages. Sandra Milliken #4404578. Published by Sandra Milliken (A0.774734). White Winter Hymnal was first released by the American indie folk band Fleet Foxes in 2008 as the first single from their debut self-titled album. The song was written by group member Robin Pecknold and has been covered by several groups and solo singers including Kim Wilde in 2013 and Pentatonix in 2014.The meaning behind White Winter Hymnal is somewhat open to conjecture. Pecknold has explained that he intended this gently uplifting song to be like Whistle While You Work from Snow White â€“ something to hum along to as you do the dishes. Pecknold added that the words actually tell a more painful story about loss of the innocence of youth, being about my experience when I was a kid, you know, like I had my really tight group of friends. But as we grew up from grade school to junior high to high school, everybody just kind of split off, and everybody kind of changed. I went from like this tight-knit group to, seemingly for no reason, everybody was kind of going their own way. That song is just about that feeling.This very accessible arrangement, featuring piano and guitar accompaniment with tambourine percussion, is ideally suited to winter and general programming, and makes an ideal concert opener.

Hope that Lasts is written for SAB choir with a trio and is appropriate for church services throughout the year, especially services with a theme of hope and encouragement. The message of this song is hope. The verses are intended to represent God's words  to us, in which He encourages and guides us along our paths. The voicing-three  individuals singing in unison-is meant to represent the three parts of the  Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.vs. 1 I have a plan  just for you,I have prepared  you something new.I will protect, I will provide, I’ll always be there by your side.vs 3. Watch me and  see what I do, I will take  care of you. Now I want you  to understand, The hopeful future I have planned.The chorus intentionally switches between singular and  plural, demonstrating the importance of both an individual and a corporate  relationship with God. After the last verse, the chorus changes to demonstrate  that we are strengthened and assured by what He tells us. Suggested Scripture passages: Isaiah 43:18-19, Philippians 3:13-14, I Thessalonians 1:2, Jeremiah 29:11, and Colossians 3:2.Chorus: Will you make a way for me, Lead me along  this path? Will you show  me where to go, And give me  hope that lasts? Will you make a way for us, Lead us along  this path? Will you show  us where to go,  And give  us hope that lasts?Also available congregational version item number SO.895371

Choral Choir (3-Part) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1194871 Composed by John Allison. Comedy,Jazz. Octavo. 8 pages. John Allison #794071. Published by John Allison (A0.1194871). This humorous piece for Cambiata Choir (adolescent boys whose voices are changing) and piano accompaniment tells the story of a meeting in the jungle between a Tiger and a Preacher. The Preacher's prayer is answered with a miracle, but there is a twist in the tail as the story ends with an amazing Grace.As the story progresses, the singers move from rhumba to waltz to hymn and back again. Musical quotations and numerous opportunities for stage 'business' all add to the fun. An enjoyable and entertaining piece that will suit young singers as well as more mature Male Voice Choirs who are looking to add something new and different to their repertoire.
