Doxology

Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;

Praise Him, all creatures here below;

Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

The Doxology, The Old 100th. If you've ever graced the doors of a church, you know it. I can't hear the Doxology without eventually hearing an organ. (And, to be honest, the sound of an entire congregation rushing to stand, as soon as the organ starts up.) This arrangement is particularly nice with it's modern harmonies and the running eighths. It's a bit rough around the edges in terms of transition. But, I thought I'd post it anyway.... (I dare you to not stand when you hear the organ at the end....)

Words: Thom­as Ken, 1674. These lyr­ics, sung as the Dox­ol­o­gy in many church­es, are ac­tu­al­ly the last verse of a long­er hymn, Awake, My Soul, and with the Sun.

Music: Old 100th, Ge­ne­van Psalt­er, 1551, at­trib­ut­ed to Lou­is Bour­geois 

This arrangement comes from Sunday Morning Companion, Arr by Victor Labenske, found here. More details can be found on the Project Page.
