Empty Now
|
By Joseph M. Martin
|
| This unusually titled anthem surveys the life and ministry of Christ from incarnation to resurrection. While not difficult to learn, "Empty Now" is liberally infused with drama and meaning as listeners discover the truth that is the foundation of the piece. From the first gentle scenes of the manger to the final triumphant alleluias, this Easter anthem takes what might otherwise be perceived as a melancholy image - emptiness - and applies it to the tomb which once held our now-risen Lord. |

Come To The Cross
|
By Joseph M. Martin Orch. by Brant Adams
|
| From the highly successful Lenten cantata, "Colors Of Grace," comes an invitation to reflect at the foot of the cross, to kneel in its shadow, to mourn the dying Christ and to find rest in the promise of salvation. "Come To The Cross" is rich in powerful imagery, swelling to an emotional "Kyrie eleison" after each remembrance of Calvary, and in the middle of all the drama and chaos surrounding his death, words of unending love, "Father, forgive them..." |
