Description: This Is My Father’s World is ideal as an anthem or call to worship for younger or less experienced choristers. This ethereal setting of TERRA BEATA offers choristers an opportunity to count carefully and to pay close attention to the score, watching for unexpected rests, fermatae, and changes in pace of the familiar melody. This is especially charming when sung with harp accompaniment.
