• Name: [The earth is the Lord's and everything in it]
• Composer: Graham Kendrick
• Key: D Major

• Notes: Sing at a brisk tempo so that the eighth notes snap on the downbeats. The antiphonal singing of the opening chorus can heighten the sense of joy. The composer recommends men for group 1 and women for group 2, but any combination of singers for the groups will work.
