A Bach Benediction
Format: Choral Octavo
Voicing: SATB/SAB
Music by Johann Sebastian Bach
Arranged by Jean Anne Shafferman
This inspired adaptation of Bach's Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, pairs his immortal chorus with the beloved 18th century hymn text Lord, Dismiss Us with Your Blessing creating the perfect worship benediction! An alternate text for Advent/Christmas and an optional congregational refrain are also included. Perform the anthem in its entirety, or if a shorter benediction is preferred, perform only the final two phrases.
