An exuberant arrangement of this majestic hymn, the percussion adds a new dimension with cymbal and snare. With trumpet, timpani and a strong organ accompaniment, the setting gives new life and freshness to this ageless hymn. The beauty is the accessible nature of the choral parts and though easy, when coupled with the embellishments of trumpet, percussion, timpani and the powerful organ accompaniment, the arrangement explodes with strength and majesty. A free organ harmonization on the final stanza utilizes interesting harmonic changes and the anthem concludes with a choral "Amen."
