John A. Behnke sets the classic Easter hymn in a festive concertato for SATB, organ, optional brass, 3 - 5 octave handbells, timpani, and cymbals. Stanza three is for the choir alone and departs from the tune, presenting a contrasting variation. A fanfare interlude modulates to a new key and announces stanza four, which has a glorious descant for high voices. The concertato finishes with shouts of alleluias! A full score is available.
