Product Description
The music is from the beautiful Irish traditional tune, "Down in the Sally Garden" which
complements the emotion of the lyrics which I have arranged from Psalm
13, the cadence of which fits perfectly with the tune.
Psalm 13 is a typical lament, in which the psalmist feels forgotten by God (Ps 13:23) - note
the force of the repetition of "How long." The references to enemies
may suggest some have wished evil on the psalmist. The heartfelt prayer (Ps 13:45) passes on a statement of trust (Ps 13:6a), intended to reinforce the prayer, and a vow to thank God when deliverance has come (Ps 13:6b).
I
have other arrangements that include (1) 3 octave handbell choirs, (2)
SATB choirs with organ accompaniment, (3) SATB choirs with piano
accompaniment, (4) and 3 and 5 octave handbell choirs with piano
accompaniment.
