Concert Order And Text

Hear My Prayer, O Lord by Henry Purcell

Text:

Hear my prayer, O Lord,

And let my crying come unto Thee.

If Ye Love Me by Thomas Tallis

Text:

If ye love me, keep my commandments,

And I will pray the Father,

And He shall give you another comforter,

That He may bide with you forever,

Even the spirit of truth.

Ubi Caritas by Ola Gjeilo

Text (Latin):

Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est.

Congregavit nos in unum Christi amor.

Exsultemus et in ipso jucundemur.

Timeamus et amemus Deum vivum.

Et ex corde diligamus nos sincero.

Amen.

Text (English):

Where charity and love are, God is there.

The love of Christ has gathered us together.

Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Let us revere and love the living God.

And from a sincere heart let us love one another. Amen

Ezekiel Saw de Wheel arr. William Dawson

Text:

Ezekiel saw the wheel,

Way up in the middle of the air.

The big wheel run by faith,

And the little wheel run by the grace of God,

A little wheel in a wheel,

Way in the middle of the air.

Better mind my brother how you walk on the cross.

Your foot might slip, and your soul get lost,

Old satan wears a club-foot shoe,

If you don’t mind, he’ll slip it on you,

Some go to church for to sing and shout,

Hallelujah!

Before six months, they all turned out.

Soon Ah Will Be Done by William Dawson

Text:

Soon ah will be done with the troubles of the world, goin’ home to live with God.

I want to meet my mother, I’m going to live with God.

No more weepin’ and a wailin’, I’m going to live with God.

I want to meet my Jesus, I’m going to live with God.

Hallelujah arr. Shawn Kirchner

Text:

And let this feeble body fail, and let it faint or die;

My soul shall quit this mournful vale, and soar to worlds on high;

And I’ll sing hallelujah, and you’ll sing hallelujah,

And we’ll all sing hallelujah, when we arrive at home.

O what are all my suffering’s here, if Lord, Thou count me meet,

With that enraptured host to appear, and worship at Thy feet!

Give joy or grief, give ease or pain, take life or friends away,

But let me find them all again in that eternal day.

Angel Band arr. Shawn Kirchner

The latest sun is sinking fast, my race is almost run,

My strongest trials now are past, my triumph is begun.

O come angel band, come and around me stand,

O bear me away on your snow-white wings to my immortal home,

I know I’m near the holy ranks of friends and kindred dear,

I’ve brushed the dew on Jordan’s banks, the crossing must be near.

I’ve almost gained my heavenly home, my spirit loudly sings,

The Holy Ones, behold, they come; I hear the noise of wings.

Unclouded Day arr. Shawn Kirchner

O they tell me of a home far beyond the skies, they tell me of a home far away,

And they tell me of a home where no storm-clouds rise:

O they tell me of an unclouded day.

O the land of cloudless days.

O the land of an unclouded sky,

O they tell me of a home where no storm-clouds rise:

O they tell me of an unclouded day.

O they tell me of a home where my friends have gone, they tell me of a land far away,

Where the tree of life in eternal bloom, sheds its fragrance through the unclouded day,

They tell me of a King in His beauty there, they tell me that mine eyes shall behold,

Where He sits on a throne that is bright as the sun in a city that is made of gold!
