* Composer's Note: This charming song is the official National Anthem of the Republic of New Eleitia, one of the world's best-kept micronations. The Republic of New Eleitia recently celebrated its first decade of existence, turning 10 years old on October 10, 2020.
As such we are proud to present to you our national anthem, composed September 21, 2015.
Employing the use of the EWN's sterling full orchestral accompaniment, as well as a large 55 voice choir, this stirring piece evokes pride in the hearts of every Eleitian citizen out there in the world today.

Lyrics:
- From the shining mountain spires, to the sparkling sapphire sea,
For the splendour that's shown to us, we give our lives to thee!

Eleitia, O Eleitia, your standard is unfurled.
From far and wide, brave and bold and true and tried,
Above the fair green world.

Through the trials that face us as a nation,
Oh, we will always perservere.
Standing firm, and strong, wherever we belong,
Protecting far and near.

Eleitia, O Eleitia, the horizon you will crest.
Of the nations on all the Earth, you rise above the rest!

* Composer's Note: I love the soaring melody in this hymn, the soprano section of the ECO did a wonderful job. This particular hymn is less arranged than some of the others, the choir wanted to do a more or less simple hymn with only the organ.

* Composer's Note: This is a simply stunning hymn! I knew from the start that I wanted to have a very mystical opening, incorporating bar chimes and a bass drone, before introducing the soloists and finally an a cappella harmony. Very pleased with how the choir interpreted this gorgeous piece!

* Composer's Note: This is an absolutely beautiful hymn that I found to be highly fitting for the final track in this album. I had heard the version performed at the Big Sing for the Last Night At The Proms, and fell in love with it. The bombastic orchestration heard here closely mimics that arrangement, while still being completely original. This is such a stirring hymn to hear recorded!

Now Thank We All Our God
