Voicing: SATB
Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus
Words by Rowland H. Pritchard (1811-1887), music by William C. Dix (1837-1898) / arr. Mark Hayes
Mark Hayes uses alternative text in this setting of Hyfrydol in order to offer two different anthems in one! Sing it for general worship or during the Advent season. The anthem works perfectly in either worship setting (or in both). As usual, Hayes' top-notch accompaniment flows effortlessly. The vocals are easily singable for average ability small to medium size choirs. A large choir makes it soar! Related Scripture: Revelation 5:9; John 14:18; Isaiah 61:1,2; Luke 4:18,19; Romans 6:22
