Come, Be Glad

Master arranger Mark Hayes provides a spirited setting of this charming Caribbean folk melody with a text of thanks and praise. The part writing is very accessible with ample unison, two-part and easy SATB sections. Stanzas 3 and 4 showcase an 'echo effect' between the men and women, and a soaring descant compliments the final stanza, culminating in the exhortation "Come, be glad!"
