My Lord Died For A Kingdom

This handwritten score brings together two distinct moments of worship, starting with a joyful Easter proclamation. "My Lord Died For A Kingdom" is a lively, rhythmic celebration of the resurrection. The lyrics remind the congregation of Christ's sacrifice to redeem the souls of men, quickly shifting into a comforting call not to weep because He has risen from His sleep. When the choir breaks into the chorus, the repeated "Sing alleluia" creates a bright, uplifting energy that fits perfectly during Easter Sunday Mass or any festive celebration of the risen Christ.

Following this is a simple, reverent setting for the "Prayer of the Faithful." With its familiar plea, "O Lord in your mercy hear our prayer," this short response is designed to be sung by the choir and congregation after each intercession. Having both pieces on one sheet gives a choir a burst of Easter joy alongside a staple liturgical response that can be used throughout the church year.
