Celebrating Gods Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love
Music by Joel Raney
Instrumentation/Orchestration by Brant Adams, Ed Hogan Choir and Piano, with opt. Orchestra SATB, SAB
Love is the central theme of Christmas. The incarnation story tells us that God so loved the world that he came to earth as a Baby, and that love is creatively illustrated in this compelling Christmas work by Joel Raney. The versatile format of this cantata allows it to be performed in its entirety in a single worship setting, or it may be presented around the four traditional themes of hope, peace, joy, and love throughout the Advent season. A rich tapestry of original and familiar melodies, diverse musical styles, accessible choral settings, and engaging accompaniment options combine to ensure a rich and meaningful Christmas worship experience for your congregation. Performance time: approximately 30 minutes
