Composed by Alan Smith. Text: Philippians 2:5-11. An easy anthem that sounds "large". General, Lent, Holy Week. Octavo. Published by CanticaNOVA Publications (C5.5049).

The text of this motet is Philippians 2:5-11, with a Doxology and Amen added at the end. This is often the New Testament Canticle at Evening Prayer, making the use of this setting a wonderful way for the choir to be directly involved in Vespers. However, The Song of Christ's Glory is also well-suited for use during Lent and Holy Week, when this text also occurs. The superb choral writing, which is accompanied by an easy organ part, begins with at a gentle mezzo-piano and builds up to a rousing fortissimo. Many phrases begin with unison voices and the ranges are quite moderate. All these attributes make this piece both an ideal "large" anthem for a small choir, and a perfect combined anthem for a choral festival!
