Product Description

Inspiration

As a follow up to a previous piece "Oh Holy Spirit" I decided to set music to another prayer, this time by Saint Columba. During the composing of the music my mother was sick in a nursing home with dementia and copd. My Mom always spoke of going on adventures and journeys; this prayer in many ways reflected her faith so it seemed fitting to write the music around the theme of "Journey On My Way" with "My Way" reflecting Gods way. By the time the piece was finished she had passed away. I sang the piece at her funeral commemorating her new adventure and journey in the presence of God.

The Music

A simple melody in the spirit of the great shaker hymn "Simple Gifts". The "A" section of the music represents a stanza in the prayer which is then followed by a short "B" section where God reminds us to "Journey On, Journey On My Way". The first "AA" sections are sung by a soloists, followed by the entire choir and then concluding in a bravura section featuring 2 tenors.
