Product Description
God is Love: Let Heavn Adore Him pairs a text by the Welsh Anglican bishop Timothy Rees (1874-1939) with the 19th-century American hymn tune BEACH SPRING, attributed to Benjamin Franklin White (1800-1979), compiler and editor of the influential Sacred Harp hymnal.
Quick to rehearse, yet satisfying to perform and moving in its effect on listeners, this lovely anthem expresses assurance in Gods boundless love, from His creation of the world (v. 1) to His love for evry child of evry race (v. 2) to His ultimate triumph over sin and death. Verses 1 and 2 are assigned to unison womens and unison mens voices, respectively. Then, following a modulation upward, the concluding verse 3 is sung by all voices in unison, with 4-part harmony at the peak of the verse before drawing to a peaceful, unison close.
