Description
SAB and organ. A pleading and heart-wrenchingly beautiful setting, each suspension more luscious than the last. Wow! Use for communion anytime, but especially useful during Lent. A GREAT fraction anthem. (The recording is only of the first verse, but you get the idea.)

Lyrics
O Lamb of God who gave thyself for me;
Now in my heart I give myself to thee.
Forgive us Lord, and grant with prayer and praise,
That we may come to love you all our days.
Teach us to know and keep your ways, O Lord;
That we would hold thy wondrous Name adored.
