Every Nation, Every Tribe

Filled with life and joy, this multicultural anthem mixes traditional choral textures with distinctive rhythms and repeated phrases in Swahili. This thrilling effect produces the perfect spirit for a song that speaks to God's universal love and grace. The appearance of O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing is a brilliant stroke, connecting a modern concept to a classic hymn text and tune. This piece will invite hands to clap as it develops and will be a memorable moment at any worship gathering or concert. Awesome! Score and Parts (bass, cajon, djembe, shakers, wood block) available as a digital download.
