Sacred Choral Collection
Based on Psalm 150
Written in celebration of the 75th Anniversary of Choristers Guild
PraiseGod!
Psalm 150
The psalm text may be used with m1-8 and read by individuals or the entire choir. If not using the spoken introduction, begin the accompaniment at m9.
Praise God in the sanctuary, Praise God with the sounding of the trumpet, Praise God with the harp and lyre, Praise God with timbrel and dancing, Praise God with the strings and pipes, Praise God with the clash of cymbals, Let everything that has breath praise the Lord, Praise the Lord!
