On Jordan’s Banks the Baptist’s Cry (PUER NOBIS NASCITUR)
$5.00 Add to carthttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/puer_nobis-on_jordans_banks.mp3
PUER NOBIS is one of the great hymn tunes of the Church and is matched with many texts, including “On Jordan’s Banks the Baptist’s Cry” and “O Splendor of God’s Glory Bright.” (This arrangement is available with either text.) I tried to bring out its folk song flavor with a piano accompaniment that is energetic. I feel like this arrangement brings out the sprightly nature of this tune in a way that often gets lost in the four-part hymnal.
Piano accompaniment for congregational singing, with C instrument descant. Purchase price allows you to make as many copies as you need for your ensemble.

Thank You, Lord
$5.00 Add to cart[audio mp3="https://gregscheer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/thank_you_lord-piano.mp3"][/audio]Like many Black Gospel songs, the beauty of this is that it focuses on one thing (thanksgiving) while allowing for lots of flexibility. The lead singer can improvise new verses in the moment (“Been so good,” “Saved my soul,” etc); the Just Add People! piano arrangement is equally flexible, with an optional modulation and chord symbols for guitar, bass, and other instruments.

What Wondrous Love (WONDROUS LOVE)
$5.00 – $25.00 Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pagehttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/what_wondrous_love-piano.mp3
“What Wondrous Love” is so elusively beautiful that composers will likely never tire of writing new arrangements of it. The hymn is a staple of Lent and Holy Week, but is also fitting for a funeral, as it begins with the story of redemption and ends in eternity.
Choose from a fresh piano accompaniment for congregational singing, or a string quartet arrangement combining the simple honesty of folk guitar with the emotional depth of string orchestra.
