Accompanied
Anthems
Blessing
– Dennis Northway
Composed in July of 1995, this is dedicated
to the choirs of
Grace Episcopal Church,
setting of the traditional Irish text. It is brief, arid and haunting.
Text:
May the raod rise up to
meet you, may the wind be always at your back;
may the sunshine on your face
and the rains fall soft upon your fields.
‘Til we meet again may God
hold you in the palm of His hand.
