About NOW THANK WE ALL OUR GOD / FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT
These two classic hymns bring a strong sense of gratitude and spiritual endurance to the choir loft. "Now Thank We All Our God" is a beloved hymn of thanksgiving, lifting up praise for the "countless gifts of love" we receive from birth. It is a natural choice for harvest thanksgivings, end-of-year Masses, or a joyful recessional where the congregation can join the choir in full voice. The sturdy harmonies make it a joy to sing in four parts.
Printed just below it is "Fight the Good Fight," a piece that shifts the mood from pure thanksgiving to steadfast encouragement. With its call to "run the straight race" and lean on Christ's mercy, it serves beautifully during ordinary time, Lenten seasons, or as a recessional hymn sending the faithful out with renewed strength. Together on one sheet, these pieces offer a choir director two reliable, deeply comforting hymns that guide the congregation through both joyful gratitude and quiet resolve.
