A Thanksgiving Hodie

Uses: Thanksgiving, General Worship Scripture: Psalm 24:1, Psalm 118:24, Psalm 50:12 Pure joy permeates this anthem of gratitude. A lightly syncopated main theme infused with mixed meter and sharp articulations drives the piece forward with confidence. The middle section quotes This Is My Father's World and this beloved hymn is an oasis of expressive beauty in the midst of the rhythmic writing. The Latin phrase Hodie means on this day, and this ancient cry is a call to worship for the church.
