Tall Stands the Tree GAB 482

If you are intending to buy a huge second hand loose leaf collection of songs you may find missing pages. Here I discovered 481 to 483 are missing. The only one of those I haven’t blogged is this one with a text by Genevieve Glen OSB set to IRISH, a seventeenth century Irish tune. I was able to find the music elsewhere.

It is recommended for healing prayer and anointing. I like it because, while it has scriptural references, they are not laid on thickly and the allusive poetic tone suits the gentle tune.

OCP sell the sheet music and provide the text in their preview.

This music is in E, while OCP bring it down to D (thanks be to God).
