Promised Land
"Promised Land" is an energetic setting that combines the traditional folk hymns, On Jordan’s Stormy Banks (I Am Bound for the Promised Land) and ‘Tis A Gift to Be Simple, into a joyous offering for handbells. With the inclusion of handchimes and various articulations, this piece promises to be a favorite for use in church and concerts. It is 62 measures in length and is set in F major and G major.
