This addition to the WorshipWorks. series explores the merits of the texts we sing in worship. Whether you are the person responsible for evaluating sung texts for your community or someone who crafts texts for sung prayer (be they your community‚ intercessions or your own musical compositions), author Alan Hommerding offers helpful insights and practical tools to help you. His background as a hymn writer, a pastoral musician, and an editor of the musical texts of others well qualifies him to author this useful little volume. Words That Work for Worship .approaches the task of text evaluation from two perspectives. In the first section of the book, the various ways that the tenets of the Christian faith should‚Äîand shouldn't‚Äîbe offered in song are examined. Particular attention is paid to scriptural adaptation. In the second half, the use of imagery, metaphor, rhyme, and other devices of language are presented briefly. This section includes some simple writing exercises. Throughout, the stress is on the care that we must take to create and select the words that we musicians put in the mouths of our worshiping assemblies. Words That Work for Worship .provides the critical tools that will help your community to sing God‚ praises faithfully and beautifully.

There is much emotion in this choral concept joining a well-known hymn text with a melody from classical repertoire. Replete with images of our journey in life and our hope for heaven, this heartfelt anthem is touched with simple sincerity. The violin adds a bittersweet element and the appearance of Going Home is an inspired touch. The anthem doesn't linger in reflection but embraces the hope of heaven, rising to a dramatic finale of praise.

With the weekly demands of providing music for corporate worship, choirs need an easy solution for quality worship music. Music ministries need arrangements that provide options for performance, conserve rehearsal time, and are consistent with the same style and integrity of the selections already at use in their program. Simply...the Best is that solution: an easy-to-sing booklet with three proven anthems re-arranged to maximize rehearsal efficiency. The songs are familiar and the parts are easy enough to learn in as little as one rehearsal. Simply...the Best arrangements are even crafted to work when there are no men available to sing, creating flexibility and the option for a women's-only choir.An exclusive benefit of the Simply...the Best series is the Virtual Accompanist trax (included on the CD accompaniment trax.) The Virtual Accompanist trax includes the women's parts being sung and played on the left channel and men's voice parts being sung and played on the right. By panning the trax to either side, you can let each section hear its parts separately. Whether you sing all three songs together or on separate occasions, with live accompaniment or with the split track accompaniment CD, this series is a simple solution to encourage choirs to lift their voices in praise. No choir is too small or too large to benefit from the practical arrangements and the new trax features of Simply...the Best.
