Pure joy! That's what your singers and congregation will experience when you sing Jalonda Robertson's exhilarating gospel piece. Although the rhythms might look intimidating, the words really fall in a very intuitive way, and the stylistic little bits of "air" between notes add to the crispness. Much of the musical material comes back later in the piece, and the coda is written out to layer on the voices one at a time, leading to the final statement of the main theme. Once your choir "gets it" they will give this one their all.
