Description

The praise suite is composed of four movements. Each based on a different hymn or song of worship. The four parts each represent different aspects of a Christian worship service.

Movement 1

The Lord Bless You and Keep You is based on Numbers 6:24-26 and is a song whose words can be thought of as welcoming or as a prayer for protection and well being as someone departs. This represents welcoming and prayer in worship.

24 The LORD bless you and keep you; 25 the LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; 26 the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace."

Movement 2

God Alone is a song that represents a dependence and recognition of God's power. Songs like this help to turn the focus of worship toward God.

Psalm 62:1 My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him.

Movement 3

Hallelujah is a song of rejoicing and praise. This represents the joyful and exuberant side of worship. The subject matter for this song is not pulled from a particular verse, but from the joy of the overall message and acts of a loving and blessing God.

Movement 4

Men Who Dream.
