About the Arranger: Donald Moore

Donald Moore

Donald Moore earned his Bachelor of Music in organ performance and Master of Arts in Teaching from Kent State University. He has served as Organist-Choirmaster at Pilgrim United Church of Christ in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, and has maintained a prolific output across multiple genres and formats.

With over 500 compositions and arrangements published by Alfred Music, BriLee Music, Warner Brothers Publications, Hal Leonard, Heritage Music Press, and Coronet Press, Moore's work spans sacred, secular, educational, and pop choral repertoire alongside organ and piano compositions and eight instructional texts. His choral works regularly appear at state contests and festivals, and the American Choral Directors Association has recognized him as one of 400 significant composers in American choral music history. He is a seventeen-time recipient of the ASCAP Composers Standard Award.

Why we love this

Moore captures the infectious energy of a gospel spiritual while keeping the arrangement lean enough to rehearse efficiently during December's crunch. The repeating refrain means your singers lock it down fast, and the sectional verse solos give everyone moments to shine without requiring extended learning time.

What to expect

Joyful and driven, with the warmth of a familiar carol wrapped in gospel swagger. The piece moves with infectious momentum, inviting singers to dig into the rhythm while maintaining the spiritual reverence at the heart of the tune.

Who it's for

Choirs performing holiday concerts who need powerful, accessible material that doesn't demand weeks of rehearsal time. This arrangement works equally well for church choirs, school concert choirs, and community ensembles seeking authentic spiritual energy with a contemporary gospel feel.

How to get the most out of it

  • Bring the refrain to life with rhythmic precision and forward motion in the accompaniment; let the repetition build anticipation rather than feel static
  • Balance the verse solos so they sit comfortably above the harmonic foundation without overwhelming the singers or the overall energy
  • Ground the piece in a solid rhythmic foundation from your bass section; gospel style demands clarity and drive from the lower voices

How to use it

Feature this as a centerpiece in your holiday concert, pairing it with slower, more reflective pieces to create dynamic contrast. Its accessibility makes it an excellent choice for opening or closing a set, when you want to leave audiences energized.

Skills your students will build

  • Gospel-style rhythmic interpretation and phrasing
  • Solo singing within ensemble context
  • Negotiating repetitive structures with sustained energy
  • Balancing vocal blend with stylistic character
