Description
For SATB Choir. A delicious Renaissance setting of this text, with flavors of Palestrina, Byrd, and Victoria. If you don't know this one, you'll soon have a new Holy Week favorite! Not to mention that you will find a lot of places you can use this little motet during the year. (You'd be surprised how many times we're exhorted to "love one another...") William Mundy ... who knew?
Text: John 13:34

Lyrics
A new commandment give I unto you, saith the Lord:
that ye love together as I have loved you,
that even so ye love one another.
