Involve your youngest singers in worship with one of these great anthems for children's choirs!

Excitement abounds in the delightful Easter anthem Christ Is Risen by Anna Laura Page.  Syncopated rhythms and a lively, upbeat tempo highlight the festive mood of the piece along with four optional handbells or hand chimes.  The optional second vocal part offers another layer of interest for maturing two-part choirs.

Little David, Play On Your Harp is a charming arrangement of the popular African-American spiritual.  The lighthearted piano accompaniment imitates sounds of a harp playing and a giant falling before the anthem concludes with a playful partner song.

Sing for Joy will have YOU singing for joy all week!  Sandra Ford's choice of the 6/8 meter invites everyone to move from the very first beat.

Ideal as an introit or call to worship, Sing Glad Hosannas is a sparkling selection for unison choirs on Palm Sunday.  Along with comfortable singing ranges, the anthem's rondo form allows singers to learn the piece quickly.  Optional handbells or hand chimes add to the festive spirit!

The Christian Children’s Songbook is a great resource for unison singing, perfect for Sunday School, Vacation Bible School, or worship anthems.  Contains 101 songs that kids love to sing, all in appropriate keys for children’s voices.
