The first release in the Hymns for Kids Series had to be the most important children's song ever: Jesus Loves Me. However, editor Cherry T. Garasi insisted that it wouldn't be enough to just do a new setting of that beloved favorite. Instead, Lloyd Larson has created a special setting of Fred Bock's classing pairing of Jesus Loves Me and Debussey's Clair de Lune just for children's voices. A new children's classic has been born!

Arranger: Lloyd Larson | Composer: William Bradbury

Jubilate is not only a joyful and rhythmically interesting piece, it is also one of the most versatile. Best performed antiphonally, it has two choir parts that echo and answer one another and can be divided in numerous ways. Optional woodblock, tambourine, and finger cymbals bring added zest to this song of praise. The familiar Latin text makes the song useful in worship and concert. Easy to medium.

Composer: Clare Toy
