Thank you spud
Beautiful!
Superb singing & arrangement. I've listened to it many times since yesterday. I like the different arrangement on the 5th verse. I think that Aled Jones was the first to sing the Robert Prizeman arrangement but since then many more choirs are singing similar arrangements. It breaks up the repetition and it fits in very well with the traditional Repton melody. The arrangement written for the movie Atonement s also brilliant but it is more darker which is very fitting for the scene. The Bede College Choir sang that one but unfortunately it was only partial but part of a very powerful sequential scene in the movie.
1 Dear Lord and Father of mankind,
forgive our foolish ways:
reclothe us in our rightful mind;
in purer lives your service find,
in deeper reverence praise,
in deeper reverence praise.
2 In simple trust like theirs who heard,
beside the Syrian sea,
the gracious calling of the Lord
let us, like them, obey his word:
'Rise up and follow me,
rise up and follow me!'
3 O sabbath rest by Galilee!
O calm of hills above,
when Jesus shared on bended knee
the silence of eternity
interpreted by love,
interpreted by love!
4 With that deep hush subduing all
our words and works that drown
the tender whisper of your call,
as noiseless let your blessing fall
as fell your manna down,
as fell your manna down.
5 Drop your still dews of quietness,
till all our strivings cease;
take from our souls the strain and stress,
and let our ordered lives confess
the beauty of your peace,
the beauty of your peace.
6 Breathe through the heats of our desire
your coolness and your balm;
let sense be dumb, let flesh retire,
speak through the earthquake, wind and fire,
O still small voice of calm,
O still small voice of calm!
Most beautiful song …；；
The dates for Hubert Parry are wrong, they should read 1848-1918 sorry to say he did not live to be 100!
Thank you! I changed the dates.
so enervating..
