Composed by Kyle Pederson. Sacred octavos. Octavo. Beckenhorst Press #2272. Published by Beckenhorst Press (BP.2272).
Kyle Pederson's striking adaptation of Scripture passages foretells a future free from tears, hatred, and injustice, and provides a vision of a renewed and redeemed earth: A New Jerusalem arise, a new creation come alive, into the dawning after dark, arise! A combination of varied musical influences is skillfully woven together for choir, piano, and optional instruments including cello, organ, handbells, and drum, as well as optional congregational involvement (congregational handout included).
