Joseph M. Martin

Sacred Waters

The impressionistic approach in this refreshing anthem incorporates word painting and imaginative poetry to create a vision of God's bounteous blessings. An invitation to come and experience the goodness of the Lord, the music has a yearning quality that nurtures a spirit of devotion. An ideal message for baptism or renewal services, choirs of every size will connect with the thoughtful ranges and part-writing. The accompaniment is a pianist's dream, and an optional flute part adds a sparkling element that will delight the ear and spirit. Evocative!
