This is an energetic SATB Easter anthem with infectious rhythms and can be done with organ or piano accompaniment, or that plus 3-5 octaves of handbells, or simply with choir and handbells alone. Ample alleluias, as you'd expect, plus snippets of other text (Where have they taken my Lord?; He is arisen from the grave!) With the composer's extensive knowledge of voice, organ, and bells, this is a sure-fire success.
