Be Like the Sun GAB 54

Bob Fabing SJ wrote this song of praise based on Psalm 116.

OCP will sell you an MP3 of it if you like, but not the sheet music as far as I can see. Someone else had that trouble and posted to his Facebook page but there was no reply.

The text, which I also can’t find anywhere, has a minor glitch in that verse three of five is sung in the voice of God and the rest isn’t. The song has a fair range with a nasty held D.

So… if you have the Guitar Accompaniment Book and can hit that D then you can sing along with this jaunty backing.

The original – much slower and restrained:

Chris Brunelle’s version works much better:

I have been known to work out the chords of songs by watching You-tube clips and these are pretty simple, so watching Chris’s hands might allow you to play along with him and learn the song even if you cannot purchase the sheet music to download.
