About the Arranger: Heather Sorenson
Heather Sorenson has built a reputation as a composer and arranger whose work spans churches, universities, concert halls, and competitive venues across the globe. Based in Dallas, she commands both traditional and contemporary Christian music with equal fluency, often blending the two into arrangements that feel distinctly her own. Her resume includes commissions from Texas A&M University, the John F. Kennedy Memorial Foundation, and a Carnegie Hall premiere of her oratorio EXODUS, alongside countless church and individual projects.
Beyond the page, Sorenson has shaped music education directly through classroom teaching at Grace Academy of Dallas, adjunct work at Baylor University, and regular appearances leading workshops at worship conferences and universities nationwide. She conducts master classes in piano and songwriting, guest conducts at churches across America, and remains active as a lecturer and guest artist. When not composing or traveling, she organizes benefit concerts for nonprofit organizations she supports.
Why we love this
Sorenson understands what makes contemporary music stick in a choir's memory and in a congregation's heart. The driving rhythms and thematic clarity here deliver impact without complexity, which means your singers learn quickly and retain the material long past the first performance. This is the kind of piece that builds confidence in ensemble singers because the repetition lets them own the melody rather than chase it.
What to expect
Confident and forward-moving, like a group of singers standing together and declaring something they mean. The driving rhythms propel the text forward with energy, while the melodic clarity ensures every word lands. This is contemporary music that feels current without chasing trends.
Who it's for
Youth groups, contemporary praise teams, and choirs seeking material with immediate impact and theological substance. The combination of quick learn-ability and stirring contemporary sound works equally well in a Sunday morning service or a special event setting.
How to get the most out of it
- Lock into the rhythmic drive from the first rehearsal. The confidence of this piece depends on the rhythm section and ensemble moving as one unit, so establish the groove early and return to it whenever focus drifts.
- Let the theme breathe naturally rather than rush through its repetitions. Each statement builds on the last, so clarity and slight space between phrases will strengthen the cumulative effect.
- Engage the instrumental parts as full collaborators, not accompaniment. The energy of this piece lives in how the band and choir interact, so balance them evenly during rehearsal and performance.
How to use it
Place this as a high-energy centerpiece in a service focused on commitment, dedication, or renewed faith. The piece works well opposite a quieter, reflective selection, letting both benefit from the contrast. It also serves well as an opener that sets a vibrant tone for the remainder of a concert or worship gathering.
