Present Among Us GC 383

I’ve still got a few stray David Haas songs that have eluded me in other collections but turn up in my copy Gather Comprehensive to blog.

This is a Eucharist song with a singable refrain for the assembly in 4/4 that goes to 3/4 for the cantor in the refrain.

As written, you need a cantor, because the verse starts over the last note of the refrain, although I’m sure that two extra bars would fix that. You just have to contend with some high notes in the verse. It is an exquisite song.

The text is in the page scans at Hymnary. The sheet music can be purchased at GIA.

My backing has the assembly and cantor lines separate.
