Voicing: Unison/two-part with piano and optional handbells and congregation
Composer: Hal H. Hopson
Open the Gates, based on Psalm 24, is a jubilant anthem by Hal H. Hopson newly edited by Katie Houts. With flexible voicing, optional handbells/handchimes, and a congregational refrain, Open the Gates invites the whole church family to join their voices together in praise. New in this edition is an optional text for the Easter season and an expanded handbell part. A true intergenerational celebration to proclaim Christ's Holy Week triumph!
