O Be Joyful to God!

Uses: General

Scripture: Psalm 98, Psalm 100

This powerhouse anthem is full of energy and abandon. Repeating the phrase “Sing Jubilate Deo!” in a call and response format, the Psalms spring to life inpunctuated shouts of praise. The “seas roar” and the “rocks cry out” in glorious acclamation. A contrasting moment surrenders the rhythmic drive for a more reflective theme. The addition of two trumpets lifts the work to atriumphal shout of jubilant worship! Bold!
