I am learning some things by scouring Gather 3rd ed. for the songs that haven’t come up here before. The Spanish/African/Irish ethnicities are catered for and Michael Mahler is a new one for me. It also appears a lot of Lori True’s work has not penetrated across the Pacific, although I do like her tune for Shirley Murray’s “A Place at the Table”.
Lori True shares the writing of this text with St Paul (Ephesians 4:1-24), but didn’t need his help for the music. Although acapella SATB sounds good for the refrain, the harmonically challenged amongst us can still use this one. It is a call for unity and mission.
The sheet music can be purchased at GIA and the words are here. She seems to be popular in the US, even amongst non-Catholic types.
I was sick a couple of weeks ago and being unable to work made a lot of backings just for something to do. That may explain things if a few sound like a fever dreams, but all these backings are quick sketches on BIAB to help sing along and learn the song.
