“Open the Eyes of My Heart” is also in AOV NG so I’ve already blogged that song here.
That gets me to this wonderful song with a text by Genevieve Glen OSB set to music by Scot Crandal. This song stands out from the ususual spiritandsong mold by being very singable by an assembly and sounding fresh. The text is poetic and allusive and the song would be good for healing masses or if an environmental theme is found in the readings.
The text can be found in this sample at Crandal’s site. You can listen to the original here.
The song has two voices in the verses which I have distinguished with different sounding melody lines.
