Surrender VAO 2/347

This is an interesting song by David Yackley.  The structure is odd in that the refrain bookends the song with three verses sandwiched between.  The first verse is a soloist who is joined by a harmony vocal the second time … Continue reading

Spirit of God VAO 2/346

This Michael Gleason song has grown on me, although I had to find it on Spotify to hear how it goes. It has a use for Pentecost and Easter liturgies. The only way to get the sheet music I can … Continue reading
