Love Will Bring Then Home (AOV 121)

This is a chant designed to be a round by Erica Marshall. You may recall her Mass of God’s People that I blogged recently. This could be used all over the place in many liturgies and is simple and heartfelt. The snippet here has very ominous background music and what sounds like gunfire in the background. I’m not sure it needs to quite as heavy as that even though with only one chord, some sort of drone instrument would work fine.  I’d love to hear the round without accompaniment with 3 parts starting a bar apart as suggested by the music.

Jesus, Sun of Justice, arise within our hearts;

Shine into our darkness and drive away our night.

Melt our cold and stony fear; enflesh our hearts with love.

Love will hear our people cry, and love will bring them home.
