(“Do not ask me to leave you, or to stop following you; for where ever you go, I will go, and where you stay, I will stay. your people will be my people, and your God my God.”) the soprano joins the choir for the twice-repeated middle section of the piece. the music here is contrastingly homophonic and intense. (“Where you die, I will die and be buried.”) the tune and harmonies are borrowed from a passage in my piece Selections from “the Song of Songs” for male voice and band. That piece is dedicated to my wife, Ruth, hence the connection. If that were not enough, our daughter is named Naomi! the Song of Ruth closes with a recapitulation of the music from the opening, but with new words assigned to it, and with the soprano soloist providing a descant for it. (“May the Lord cause ill fate to befall me, and more, if anything but death separates me and you.”) Appropriat...    less

Lullaby baby, now reclining, Sing lullaby! Hush, Do not wake the Infant King. Angels are watching, stars are shining Over the place where he is lying: Sing lullaby! Sing lullaby! Lullaby baby, now a-sleeping, Sing lullaby! Hush, Do not wake the Infant King. Soon will come sorrow with the morning, Soon will come bitter grief and weeping: Sing lullaby! Sing lullaby! Lullaby baby, now a-Dozing, Sing lullaby! Hush, Do not wake the Infant King. Soon comes the cross, the nails, the piercing, then in the grave at last reposing: Sing lullaby! Sing lullaby! Lullaby is the babe awaking? Sing lullaby! Hush, Do not stir the Infant King. Dreaming of Easter, gladsome, morning, Conquering death, its bondage breaking: Sing lullaby!  less

I love thee, lord Jesus! Look Down from the sky, And stay by my side until morning is nigh. Be near me, lord Jesus; I ask thee to stay Close by me for ever and love me, I pray. Bless all the dear children in thy tender care, And fit us for heaven to live with thee there.  less
