This is from Christopher Walker’s Celtic Mass and it is a specific piece of music for the dismissal of the Catechumens and the Elect in the RCIA. It has uses beyond that as a blessing at other times.
The sheet music can be purchased at OCP where the text is hidden in their preview.

We have found this is also appropriate to use for the Procession of the Word, at Lay Led Liturgies. It is a nice short hymn. (It is also in Catholic Worship Book II, #88, and is listed on OneLicense.net if your parish is registered with them for reporting; it is not listed on CCLI, if that helps.)
Thanks, Trish – that’s an excellent use that hadn’t occurred to me. I keep forgetting CWB2 as we don’t have a copy at our parish yet.
We have had to drop a few songs that aren’t OneLicence from our repertoire. They are now non-songs.
cheers
Geoff
