The Body of Christ BB 2023

The is a very singable Eucharist waltz from Sarah Hart, who has become one of the most prolific Catholic songwriters of our time. The refrain is intentionally kept simple and memorable to be sung while processing.

A lot of her songs have a country feel to them and this is no exception. By the way, my non-scientific survey shows that OCP music is getting less up tempo and more ballad focused (ie less Spirit & Song) and this includes their more youthful contributors. There is an an opening in the market for other approaches but is seems unlikely to come from mainstream OCP/GIA axis. I suspect it will come from schools but young people’s music is a mystery to me.

The sheet music can be purchased at OCP, where the text is in their preview.

I used the preview to make a BIAB backing to help us learn it.
