Three for Emily Brink: What Wondrous Joy

emily_brink

Update 3/12/22: Sheet music for this song is now available at gregscheer.com.

The grande dame of congregational song, Emily Brink, recently retired. I was asked to provide some music for a book celebrating her career: “One Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church: A Scrapbook of Worship Resources for the Worldwide Church.” Of course, I was happy to add to the collection, and only wish I could have been at her retirement party to celebrate with her and sing some of the songs from the book.

The first song is a setting of Psalm 133 by Michael Morgan for which I wrote a new tune: MP3.

Why the tune name MY IMAGINARY FRIEND, you ask? Well, Maria Poppen told me that her daughter Rebekah has an imaginary friend, and somehow she decided to name her Emily Brink! How cute is that?
