I Sing the Mighty Power of God is a festive and majestic version of this much-loved hymn. Mark Patterson has written it for SATB choir, youth choir, and children's choir, but it may also be performed by SATB choir alone. The diverse choral writing in the piece brings moments of lyrical beauty, stirring contemplation, and rousing praise. The congregation is invited to join the last verse for a triumphant ending with a new, original text with the tune ELLACOMBE. Reproducible congregational page included.

Best fitted for festival settings with students, "I Sing the Mighty Power of God" employs the power of organ accompaniment. Suitable for congregational participation to add festive feel to the time-honored text and tune.
At YouthCUE Festivals, this anthem will be accompanied by full orchestra, which will bring out even more the colors written into the music. This fresh hymn setting almost sings itself, and with some concentrated effort and focus, the students will conquer this anthem in style.
