The choir has been active for a quarter of a century, and is active not only in classical music but also in film music and a variety of other venues. (Tobu Shoji) Contents Harbach(b.1946):. Praise Him with the trumpet/ Sing, alleluia / / The hills cry out their joyous hosanna / Sing, rejoice! This night in Bethlehem/ Sing! Christ is born/ / The light that I hear / Bask, my soul. O dark cup of Christ/ Turn, oh my soul/ / Mary's joyful cry/ / In peace and joy I now depart. I sometimes feel like a motherless child. Give me Jesus.
