Incorporating three treasured Christmas carols (Oh Come, All Ye Faithful; Away in a Manger; The First Noel), this anthem for children's choir and congregation paints a vivid picture for people of all ages. The children's choir repeats the call, “All the way to Bethlehem. Come and see the infant Holy...” to which the congregation responds by singing carols.

This jubilant Christmas anthem, for SATB choir, organ, and trumpet, celebrates the birth of Christ. The piece involves the whole congregation, which joins the choir in the last verse. With its straightforward harmonies, this anthem is approachable for any choir.

This jubilant song provides vivid imagery of the everlasting Heavenly celebration promised in Scripture, as well as how it is possible – through the sacrifice made by Jesus on the cross.

The work was originally scored for SATB, organ, and handbells (piano could substitute for either). An SATB and piano score is also available. The choral parts are identical between the two versions, including the placement of line and page breaks.

This two-part work for SATB choir and organ celebrates the Lord's greatness and mercy. The text of the first movement is based on the Magnificat, or Song of Mary (Luke 1:46-55), while the second text is from the Nunc dimittis, commonly known as the Song of Simeon (Luke 2:29-32).

The difficulty level of this piece may be more appropriate for experienced choirs. The total work is around seven minutes in length. Either movement may be used independently.

Voiced for AATBB, this work gives a rich, lush texture to this prominent text. The piece was written for The Compline Choir, an all-male ensemble dedicated to weekly observance of the Compline service, which is the last service of the day.

This festive setting of Psalm 150 proclaims the power of the Lord, imploring all to praise him. The work is especially well-suited for larger choirs that are able to provide the volume the text demands. The text is the traditional Latin; we recommend printing the provided English translation in the program or order of worship.

Combining a traditional Irish blessing with the biblical benediction, this work for choir and solo soprano instrument works well as a sung benediction. The work's harmonies are approachable for any choir.

While the work is scored for SATTBB, it is designed to be sung by a balanced SATB choir. A soft accompaniment (such as flute stops on an organ) can be used to bolster the lower parts if sufficient voices are not available. Suggested instruments for the solo part include a violin, flute, oboe, or recorder.

Based on the French carol Noël Nouvelet, this work by Raymond Haan is suitable for most choirs. The soprano melody is supported by rich harmonization in the other parts. Appropriate for an Easter service, the text describes Christ's burial and resurrection. It is intended to be sung unaccompanied, but a keyboard reduction is included for rehearsals and if accompaniment is desired for performance.

Based on Psalm 16, the text of this song is a prayer for protection and of praise. Starting in C minorand ending in the relative major of E-flat, the music reflects the text's shift from a plea for deliverance to the Psalmist's sure knowledge of God's faithfulness.

This work is written for SATB choir with organ accompaniment, and is around 2.5 minutes in length.

This work, for SATB choir with keyboard accompaniment, is a new treatment of the familiar hymn "For All the Saints." The traditional text is set to music that recalls the traditional tune, both in chord progressions and snippets of melody, resulting in a refreshing take on this hymn.

Suggested uses include celebrating the life of the church, All Saints Day, and memorial services. Like many other works by Dale Grotenhuis, this piece is approachable for any choir, while not lacking in depth.
