… on the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me, loads of new anthems for your Spring/Easter planning.
That’s right, just when you thought it was safe to open your WorshipSongsOnline email, we announce all of our new products for your Spring consideration.
Your stocking is going to be overflowing this time with so much variety! Our composers and writers have been like Santa’s elves, laboring away at their craft with cheerful vigor. I have been involved in this publishing process for nearly 30 years, and this is one of the most exciting releases I have ever presented. Congratulations to all of our creative team!
To access your stocking stuffers, simply click on the WorshipSongs cover image on this homepage and follow the links. These links will take you to full length recordings or excerpt versions of the new releases, plus you will have the option of connecting to our Hal Leonard/Shawnee YouTube site where you can “look and listen” to full scores and recordings.
So, while sitting by the fire and sipping your eggnog, take a moment to listen to our latest and greatest releases. It is our gift to you, and we hope it will bring you a touch of joy during this busy time of year.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
