Malcolm Archer’s anthem is a catchy, joyous and dance-like setting in 6/8 time, with unison writing, parallel thirds, often with tenors and basses doubling sopranos and tenors, as well as melodies sung in canon by upper and lower voices. “It is written with the average parish church choir in mind,” says Tim Ruffer, the RSCM’s Head of Publishing. “Malcolm really has the knack of being able to write music which is accessible, can be quickly learnt, and above all enjoyed by those who sing it. It’s a worthy piece to celebrate Music Sunday.”
