ANCIENT WORDS _ SATB

About the arrangement...The first time I heard "Ancient Words" I was struck with the timeless beauty ofboth the music and the text. This song touches me deeply whenever I hear it, andI believe it wil l age gracefully. lt seems to pair naturally with "Amazing Crace,"a song that has stood the test of time for over two hundred years.

Keep your interpretation simple and tender; just "let the ancient words impart."One performance option to consider: make a solo out of the opening stanzas,from measures B- l6.

"Heaven and earth wil l pass away, but my words wil l never pass away."-Matthew 24:35
