Description

SATB Choir, Tenor solo, and Organ. What a great setting of "The Great Commission": Matthew 28:18-20. The Gospel lesson for Trinity Sunday, Year A. Not too difficult with a harmonic richness that makes this both accessible and delightfully interesting.

Lyrics

Jesus came and said to them,
All authority in heaven and on earth
has been given to me.
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations,
teaching them to observe
all that I have commanded of you;
And lo, I am with you always,
to the close of the age.
