The last song from Liam Lawton’s Glendalough Mass is his Agnes Dei. This is a reverent litany in a restrained waltz time. He has John Bell’s knack of writing music that fits so well with its idiom that it could be a classic folk tune from centuries ago. This sounds very singable indeed. The repetition at the end serves the tune and resolves the piece neatly.
Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,
Have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,
Have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,
Grant us peace, grant us peace.
