God Is Here [Alf:00-36828]

Here is an anthem that helps us celebrate what it means to be a church: to offer praise and prayer, to preach the Word, participate in the sacraments, to foster faith and service, and to live lives for "church and kingdom" that bring glory to God. The text presents a catalog of the central tenants of the church and emphasizes the relationship between Sunday worship and daily living; the music is memorable and emotional and in its final verse, simply thrilling.
