The Peace of God GC 719

This lovely song from David Haas is based on Phillipians 4:5-9 and would be a suitable prayer in many liturgies, especially funerals. One of the You Tube clips suggest it was written in response to the 9/11 tragedy.

It is a good example of his work that we miss when we don’t go beyond his classics found in AOV 1&2. The tune is simply gorgeous and the text is well adapted. I would bring it down from Ab to F so groaners like me have a chance at the verses.

The text can be found here. You can purchase the sheet music at GIA.

For once I’ve managed a more restrained BIAB backing.
