Publisher's Synopsis
Even Jesus' closest friends doubted His promise: In three days I will rise again. However, Christ triumphed over death, and through His resurrection, those who follow Him have a new and Living Hope. This cornerstone of our faith serves as the foundation for Tom Fettke and Thomas Grassi's impassioned extended work for Easter. Distinguished by its use of nineteenth-century American hymnody, Shaker melodies, and spirituals, this celebratory cantata also includes the option for three soloists and six narrations for one or more readers. Michael Lawrence's powerful orchestration adds to the brilliance of this hope-filled work that is sure to engage your choir and congregation in celebration of the risen Christ!
