God to Enfold You CWB II 96

To their credit the editors picked a John Bell and Graham Maule text for “The Scrutinies” in the RCIA. It goes after the Prayer of Exorcism. The tune is John Bell’s ENFOLDING.

A text as gorgeous as this has much more general application.

Hymnary have details on the hymnals that have this song. Wild Goose sell the sheet music in the collection Love and Anger.

God to enfold you, Christ to uphold you,

Spirit to keep you in heaven’s sight;

So may God grace you, heal and embrace you,

Lead you through darkness into the light.

Text John Bell and Graham Maule. Music John Bell – from Love and Anger
