Your Word Is Everlasting

Cortez's original hymn tune, ASTORIA, features Dorian modal elements and a foursquare rhythmic concept, giving it an air of timelessness that musically matches the "everlasting" theme of the text. With additional lyric themes that deal with angels, creation, Christian life, and the Word of Jesus Christ, this compelling assembly hymn is scored for SATB choir, keyboard, and guitar.
