The Kingdom Calls Us to Repent / We Feel the Weight of Sadness, Lord GAB 948

I’ve only got a few songs left in the Guitar Accompaniment Book from OCP c2005. I’m tidying up 2007 additions that I haven’t blogged elsewhere. I’ve also skipped the Psalms and some service music.

This wins the prize for the longest title if nothing else. “The Kingdom Calls Us to Repent” is for Lent and “We Feel the Weight of Sadness” for funerals. The lyrics were written by Harry Hagan. It is set to the c16 tune WINDSOR attributed to Christopher Tye. The music is pretty funereal, which suits.

OCP will sell you the sheet music and the many verses of the two texts are available in their preview.
