Published by Concordia Publishing House (CR.984347). ISBN 9780758668851. 7 X 10.25 inches.'And Christ Shall Be Our Peace' is a two-part mixed voices anthem with organ and optional small handbell ensemble. The text is also useful for any Sunday with the theme 'Christ the Good Shepherd.' The two-part texture allows for some singers to ring bells as needed. 'And Christ shall be our peace,' the prophet said of old, 'His coming is from ancient days, the Shepherd to His fold. From Judah's tribe in Bethlehem shall come this King so long foretold.' And Christ shall be our strength; His own shall dwell secure; His kingdom spread through all the earth forever to endure. For His dear flock He conquered death, o'er sin and grave to be the cure. And Christ shall be our hope through all our weary days. His rod and staff our feet direct to guide us in His ways. Though slow our steps and dark our paths, He shall our troubled hearts upraise. And Christ shall be our joy; help us this joy to share with this, our lost and dying world. Help us Your grace declare, that all may know Your mighty power and tender love beyond compare, Your love beyond compare. Text copyright © 2020 Concordia Publishing House.
