Dwell in the Midst of Us

A shifting tonal center throughout this song helps underscore the watchful anticipation for the coming of God in this Advent text. Longing for God is a principal theme of the three verses and reflective refrain. It is scored for three-part choir with descant, accompanied by keyboard, guitar, and oboe or clarinet in B-flat. It will come together with little rehearsal, and rich harmonies help Dwell in the Midst of Us sound more complex than it actually is, making it an ideal choice for choirs who wish to add new music to their Advent & Christmas repertoire.
