Composed by Robert James Lamb. Arranged by James Lamb. Handbell choir music. Handbell score. 7 pages. Beckenhorst Press #HB562. Published by Beckenhorst Press (BP.HB562).
For 3 to 7 octave handbell choir and optional 3 octaves of handchimes. Rated level 3. A mournful minor verse of the Lowell Mason tune gives rise to a hopeful modal version employing unexpected harmonies and propelling eighth notes. Tension builds into a triumphant verse that calms into a peaceful final iteration. A wonderfully expressive choice for throughout the church year.
