Review:      Thomas Troeger’s exciting new hymn text takes a fresh look at worshiping God through music, as all of creation joins in singing a “ravishing tune.” Joel Raney finds an artistic approach to this text, featuring the pipe organ in a brilliant presentation for SATB choir, with optional 3-5 octave handbells. An original melody sets the festive stage but quickly combines with the familiar hymn tune LYONS, ideal for the celebration of church music and the glory of God’s creation. Arranged in F Major, D Major, G Major, and Ab Major, this piece is 83 measures.
