Scripture: Jeremiah 31:6, Revelation 21:2

A refreshing perspective is given to two early American hymns in this choral tapestry of hope. A buoyant rhythmicpattern in the accompaniment creates a rocking motion that comforts and assures while the choral texturing uses lots of unison and two-part writing for ease of learning. Far from being gloomy, this arrangement is life affirmingand filled with the light of God's promise of eternal life. Duration: ca. 2:27.
