Praise Now the Risen Christ

The surprising joy of the Resurrection is conveyed through jubilant fanfares in the accompaniment and a shifting of the rhythm between 3/4 and implied 6/8 meters. As the mood softens, a more melodic section expresses the lyrics, "I know that my Redeemer liveth." After the unaccompanied chorus sings "All glorious Risen Christ" and a brief moment of silence, the piece bursts forth again with fanfares and thicker choral textures that build in excitement to the end. A perfect Easter anthem! Duration: 2:45
