Welcome Place
J. Paul Williams and Joel Raney have joined forces to provide a much-needed anthem addressing the church’s role as a welcoming place in this world. The text, beginning with “Lord of Mercy, Lord of grace, make this church a welcome place,” is a fervent prayer of commitment to feed the hungry, offer rest to the weary, and be a place of teaching the Word. The music is expertly crafted and provides options for the addition of 3-5 octave handbells. This setting is 136 measures.
