He Is Not Here!

He Is Not Here    (Introit)

Last verse:


And so we do Proclaim on Easter day that Jesus is not in the grave, 
but risen from the dead just as he said with majesty and power to reign. 
He is not here, he is risen! See the tomb is empty where he lay. 
He is not here he is risen! Jesus rose on Easter.
He is not here, he is risen! see the tomb is empty where he lay. 
He is not here he is risen! Jesus rose on Easter day. 
Alleluia!

Possible music for 2017-2018


What do you think of these anthems? I'm probably ordering four of them. Thanks for your comments!


For the Bread Which You Have Broken Simple Communion anthem based on "Beach Spring"

Who Will Go to Bethlehem? A little mixed meter livens up this gentle Christmas anthem.

Agnus Dei Lovely Sanctus including "How Great Thou Art"

Creation Sings General anthem in praise of the Creator

Total Praise A nice general anthem

I Am the Vine Lovely general Anthem by Allen Pote; would split nicely for Introit/Benedictory Response

Christ is Born! More contemporary Christmas piece. Very nice.
