Choral Arrangement: Come Quickly, Lord

I’ve looked forward to someone arranging Come Quickly, Lord for choir ever since Greg Habegger and I wrote the hymn version a few years ago. Brian Buda has now done so, and it’s being published by SoundForth as part of it’s ChurchWorks Choral Series. Brian does a beautiful job capturing both the lament and the expectancy of the song. Here’s the publisher’s description of his piece:

Here is a new arrangement of a well-loved ChurchWorksMedia hymn. “We long to hear the joyous cries and join the ransomed throng” is a believer’s plea to see Christ. With decorative piano accompaniment and swelling voices, this anthem will be a favorite of your choir and takes little time to rehearse.

You can here the demo here, order the arrangement here, read my notes on the text here, and get the congregational version PDF here. Grace!
