Description
A Litany of Remembrance. For Congregation, SATB Choir and Organ or Piano, with optional handbell or chime. A wonderful and moving way to read the names and acknowledge the departed saints on All Saints Day or All Saints Sunday. Begins with choral introit followed by a musical section with congregational response in which names may be read, candles lighted, etc. Then, a reprise by the choir and organ: may your light shine upon them...
The congregational part for your bulletin may be found in the EXTRAS (ZIP) file.

Lyrics
Grant them eternal rest, O Lord,
for they rest from their labors,
grant peace, O Lord, grant peace.
Grant them eternal rest, O Lord,
may your light shine upon them,
grant peace, O Lord, grant peace.
