Product Description
The perfect Easter morning song, "He is Risen", was inspired by centuries of Christians on Easter morning, proclaiming to each other and to the entire world that HE IS RISEN! And we reply again, HE IS RISEN INDEED!
As heard on my YouTube channel, this is the full piano vocal version in the original key of D Major, with a vocal range from D4-E5.
This song is beautiful for an Easter church service, either sung by a soloist or as a way to open a church service on Resurrection Sunday! It's perfect for a single singer accompanied by keyboard or piano for a powerful, prophetic statement, or can be joined halfway by a praise band or a pipe organ, whatever matches the style of your church's music. For best results, a smooth, rich pad sound should be used, especially for the beginning.
Also available, by searching "Stacey Plays Hymns" and the song title on this site, are the following versions:
Full piano and vocal arrangement in G major [for low or very high voices]
Full piano and vocal arrangement in F major [for higher voices, a true soprano range]
Lead Sheet in several useful keys
Piano solo for a perfect matching prelude or postlude or communion interlude.
For other formats including large print, or extended choral harmony versions, please write me at staceyplayshymns@gmail.com and I'll be glad to make them especially for you. Purchase includes a free license for one church service with under 300 people, with proper attribution and credit in any printed or online materials. For a license to use this work on a larger scale, please contact me for permission and other usage details including lyrics formatted for printing in church bulletins or for powerpoint. Please let me know if there is any other way I can serve you as a congregation or fellow music/choir director as I endeavour to write several new choral anthems per year, along with my other recording work.
Thank you for supporting modern hymnwriters and musicians!
