for SATB voices, accompanied with opt. hand drum and triangle
By Lloyd Larson
"A voice cries out, 'In the wilderness, prepare ye the way of the Lord.'" Lloyd Larson has crafted an inspired, dynamic new musical setting of well-known Advent prophecies from Isaiah 9: 2 and 40: 1-5. Antiphonal voices call and respond with the word of God, leading to a partnering of the new tune with Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence. Also appropriate for the baptism of Jesus, with keyboard and percussion (optional, part included).
