God Loved the World So That He Gave (piano solo)

Jeremy Glaser has fashioned the hymn tunes ST. CRISPIN by George J. Elvey and MARTYRDOM by Hugh Wilson into a piano solo for the intermediate player. It is very much in the style of the classical period of the early nineteenth century.

The main tune, ST. CRISPIN (God loved the world so that he gave...) appears first in a simple setting, is repeated, and then gives way to a fanfare interlude. The main tune then reappears in a more stately setting. MARTYRDOM (Alas! and did my Savior bleed...) is then played in the bass, with an obbligato in the treble. The original setting of the main tune, the fanfare, and the more stately setting of the main tune are then repeated to complete the piece.

Because of the repeats, it is easy to adjust the piece to fit the allotted time in a concert, recital, or worship service.

God loved the world so that He gave
His only Son the lost to save,
That all who would in Him believe
Should everlasting life receive.

Christ Jesus is the Ground of faith
Who was made flesh and suffered death;
All that confide in Him alone
Are built on this chief Cornerstone.

God would not have the sinner die,
His Son with saving grace is nigh;
His Spirit in the Word doth teach
How man the blessèd goal may reach.

+++

Alas! and did my Savior bleed
and did my Sovereign die?
Would he devote that sacred head
for sinners such as I?

+++

If thou be sick, if death draw near,
This truth thy troubled heart can cheer:
Christ Jesus saves my soul from death;
That is the firmest ground of faith.

Glory to God the Father, Son,
And Holy Spirit, Three in One!
To Thee, O blessèd Trinity,
Be praise now and eternally!

WE SEEK RECORDINGS TO USE AS DEMOS
The majority of our sheet music pieces use electronically-produced demos on the item pages. We would much prefer to use actual recordings, so if you email us a digital recording or link to an online video and we end up using it as a demo on our site (fully credited), we will send you a coupon code good for US$25 toward your next purchase from our site.

BLANKET RECORDING POLICY FOR SHEET MUSIC
Many of our sheet music licenses state that the purchaser does not have the right to record the work. We have modified our policy on this, and unless the license page states that you must obtain permission from a party other than www.tributek.com to record the work, we will allow a small number (less than 50) of copies of an audio or video recording of a live performance to be made and distributed and/or posted to a free web site for viewing/listening, so long as www.tributek.com, the composer, arranger, and lyricist are credited.

The description of the product included a Quicktime demo in addition to a clear, interesting, well-written description of the product. The price of the product was a bargain. The ordering process could not have been easier or faster. I will definitely shop with Tributek again!"

I require the music for a wedding in a couple of weeks, and didn't want to wait for music to be sent in the mail. It was great to be able to hear the music and to know the length of the PDF file and performance time."
