This is the last of the new songs from Breaking Bread for 2022. The ones I haven’t covered in this series I have dealt with before, other than Sarah Hart’s Mass of St Mary Magdalene. (not game)
This is a fine song for gathering or comforting but I fear Chris Mulgia has made it too fiddly for an assembly and it may be best as a solo vehicle. The verses have marked deviations in the melody and the timings are tricky. That said, assemblies have a way of adapting to such challenges and it may still be useful, as it is rather lovely. I note Chris Brunelle (below) pretty much just talks the verses and sings the refrain and it seems to work.
OCP will sell you the sheet music and the text is available in their preview.
6/8 is a bit of work on BIAB.
