Recording of our Wonderful Young Women and their leaders singing this in Sacrament Meeting

This is a piece for Young Women to sing which reflects the 2016 Mutual Theme, "... press forward with a steadfastness in Christ.." I hope you like it. Thanks to one of my collaborators, Sue Anderson for the wonderful and stirring words.

Daughters of God, we vowed before our birth 
to spread His love and light across the earth. 
Now we have come, this mission to fulfill, 
forgetting self to do the Father's will. 

Daughters of God, when shadows hide the way, 
we look to One whose brightness sparked the day. 
Seeking His word, we take His faithful hand 
and all is well; beside us He will stand. 

Chorus 
Press forward, feasting on the words of Christ. 
Hope is His gift, and Love His only price. 

Daughters of God, this world is torn and tossed. 
On holy ground, our souls are found, not lost. 
Planting our feet on gospel sod secure, 
we grow in strength and know we can endure. 

Daughters of God, we shine steadfast and true. 
The pathway home is open to our view. 
With spirit eyes, we prize the Father's plan. 
His love is ours, and we will be His hands. 

Chorus 

O come O Come Emmanuel

 I originally arranged this for a friend a couple years ago, but sadly they never performed it, so I revamped it a little. It is scored for Soprano, Alto, Piano and Cello. The Soprano range goes up to a high A, an the Alto part goes in the basement. :) I tried to transpose to make the voices a bit better, but couldn't find anything that suited me. Of course the voices could be played by any C-instrument and make a nice trio. The arrangement is a combination of O Come O Come Emmanuel and Lully Lullay (Coventry Carol) intertwined. I think it goes well together. I hope you enjoy it and please leave comments. :)
