Featured works from Celebrating Grace and Growing in Grace, by Ruth Elaine Schram:

Grow Me, Lord
This gentle song of commitment expresses the desire for the Lord to grow and mold us into Christ's image. Hymnlike in its writing, the optional second part soars in a descant style creating beautiful musical moments. Consider using the flute for a special effect.

More Than a Baby
This contemporary ballad is stunning! Written from the perspective of someone looking into the manger, the children will declare that they see more than a Baby - they see the Savior of the world! The melody is memorable and easy to learn. Sure to be a favorite!

Now Thank We All Our God
This hymn arrangement for unison or two-part voices by Ruth Elaine Schram pairs the familiar tune, Nun Danket, with a new counter-melody, providing a great opportunity to introduce part-singing to young, developing choirs.

With a Joyful Noise
Based upon Psalm 100, this cheerful anthem sings of praise and service to the Lord. Perfect for Thanksgiving or any time of year, it includes an easily-learned, buoyant melody for unison voices. The incorporation of an optional second part adds harmonic contrast and variety, and with the optional Descant at the end, creates a beautiful build to the climax of the piece. (A C-instrument can be added on the optional second part to reinforce the vocal line or create an obbligato for unison voices.)

The Words of My Mouth
"May the words of my mouth be pleasing in your heart, O Lord." Based upon Psalms 19:14 and 145:21, this thoughtful anthem, set in E minor, is hauntingly beautiful. Scored for unison or two-part voices with modest vocal ranges, it teaches important truths to young hearts.
