Come and Rejoice (Based on 1 Chronicles 16:8-36) SATB Composed by Pepper Choplin

Pepper Choplin's music is always full of memorable moments, fresh, singable melodies; and worship-centered texts. Come and Rejoice is no exception. This bright, energetic song beckons all creation to join as we sing and praise the Lord. Much of the piece is light in texture to propel the sparkling rhythm. The running eighth notes of the piano provide an exciting accompaniment to match. Choplin's text is based on a song of David found in I Chronicles 16:8-36, which was sung before the Ark of the Covenant. This joyous anthem would serve well as a call to worship or to bring praise and thanksgiving to a special celebration.
