Review:
This festive Easter prelude is the latest addition to Joel Raney’s exciting series of piano/organ worship openers with optional handbells and SATB choir entering at the conclusion for a choral introit. Built on the popular Gaither title, this setting also includes a verse of “Crown Him with Many Crowns.” Both keyboard parts are included. New for this arrangement is the option to include brass quartet, along with 3-5 octaves of handbells. These parts, plus a full conductor’s score, and a 10-pack of choral scores, are available separately. "Because He Lives" is 161 measures.
