First Presbyterian Church of LaGrange Texas

Palm Sunday:  Our Chancel Choir is pleased to present two anthems for this Sunday's Palm Sunday worship service. The first, "There is a Redeemer" was composed in 1977 by Melody and Keith Green. Melody composed the first two verses with a straightforward message: Jesus is God's present to the world, and He left the Spirit to finish what the Son started. The third verse, penned by Keith, seems almost prophetic as he and their 2 children were killed in 1982 in a plane crash. The choir's second anthem, "What Man is This?" by Pepper Choplin, highlights Christ's sacrifice and the fulfillment of the promise of His birth. In this anthem, original words are set to a traditional Christmas carol to create an unforgettable work. Thank you, Chancel Choir, for presenting these beautiful anthems this morning!
