We Live In That Far Future
Nine handbells, ranging from D5 to E6, play in simple rhythms in several sections of this anthem of God's faithfulness and our responsibility through the generations. The opening lines describe the mood the best: "We live in that far future out founders could not see, that strange new world and culture that time would bring to be, yet God gave them a vision..." This is a good way to involve handbells in a larger work. Written in G Major, measures total 113.
