Unlike the other songs in the suite, Christ Jesus, Our Hope is not based on one specific prophecy of scripture. Instead, the song introduces and concludes both the Advent and Passion Suites. Mankind has often hoped to find a leader(s) who can make a real difference in peoples lives. Humanity yearns for justice, the end of poverty, oppression, atrocities, and war. Messiah is presented in the Hebrew Bible as the Ideal King, a person who is just, wise, powerful, capable, yet. compassionate. Messiah is not just a Jewish king who will favor Israel but will bring true prosperity to the entire earth.
Hope of the World is made of 2 suites of songs that present messianic prophecies from the Old Testament that are referenced in the New Testament. The first 8 songs center on the birth of Christ, the last 9, Christs life and passion.
01 Christ Jesus Our Hope (Advent) and 09 Christ Jesus Our Hope (Passion) are very similar, musically. Verses 2-4 are different.
Includes 1) full score 2) SATB choir part on 2 staves 3) full score for 10 inch tablet
