Composed by Richard H. Neiderhiser. Arranged by Lyndell Leatherman. Christian,Sacred. Score. 2 pages. Leatherman Music Services #5888693. Published by Leatherman Music Services (A0.829375).
From 1978 to 1992 I was honored to serve on staff with Dr. Richard H. Neiderhiser at the Grandview (Missouri) Church of the Nazarene. In addition to his impressive homiletic skills, he possessed a rich background in music and liturgy. Those were golden years as together we sought fresh expressions of worship. Every Advent season he would come up with a relatively obscure Advent hymn text and then use each stanza as the outline for that Sunday's sermon. And each Sunday we would start on stanza one and sing through the stanza of the day. Often he would write a new tune for the text; such is the case with LUCILLE, which he paired with the text "Let the Earth Now Praise the Lord." (The hymn-style edition of this text and tune can be found separately on SMP.) With Dr. Neiderhiser’s blessing I offer this 2-staff organ arrangement for your consideration. Because it's an original tune that will have no specific associations for your congregation, it can be used for service music any week of the year...although it would be particularly effective as a prelude (1:30 in duration) during Advent if you were going to use the hymn edition later in the service.
It has been my lifelong endeavor to provide fresh, yet accessible music for the churches and schools with whom I have been associated. Because of the slowdown caused by Covid-19, I finally have the time to start posting 45 years' worth of custom arrangements on Sheet Music Plus. If you are curious about what else is available, please navigate to my publisher page here on SMP

If you perform any of my material and are able to produce a high-quality mp3 recording or video, please send it to me at [email protected]. If it's something that I can use on SMP or Facebook, I'll be sure to give credit where credit is due!
