Description

Two-part treble choir and organ. Does the term "minimalism" make you a bit queasy? Us, too! But here is the exception. A minimalist organ part underscores a beautifully simple melody - sung in unison, then in canon at the second. A lovely and poignant piece for a treble choir, or a duet. Perfect for anytime of year. If you don't know this one, give it a look.

Lyrics

O holy Jesus, merciful Redeemer,
friend and brother,
may I know thee more clearly,
love thee more dearly,
and follow thee more nearly, day by day.
