The Heritage Hymn

Words by James C. Ward, arranged by Heather Sorenson

Here is a festival anthem that commemorates the church triumphant with pomp and power. A mixed meter flourish raises the curtain on this epic octavo before settling into a stately theme that carries the message of God's faithfulness to His people. With quotes from the familiar hymn tunes LANCASHIRE and AURELIA, the music creates connection with the listener while building intensity to a truly grand conclusion.
