Glory to God On High

Please download and Print
http://freeldssheetmusic.org/music/inline_download_file?download_id=45028&name=Glory-to-God-on-High-CHORAL.pdf

This one should come together very easily for us and sound great!

We need to record this one during our practices.

__________________________________________________

Wexford Carol
Soloist... Choir (or quartet) joins on Verse 3 to end.
I'd like to try the Choir on this... if we need to do just a quartet,
we will change to that when it gets closer to the concert.
