Description

"As the rain hides the stars, as the autumn mist hides the hills..." Here is an exquisite setting of a traditional Gaelic prayer that will bring out all the ethereal beauty of your mixed choir.

the Inspiration

Text

As the rain hides the stars, as the autumn mist hides the hills, as the clouds veil the blue of the sky, so the dark happenings of my lot hide your shining face from me. Yet, if I may hold your hand in the darkness, II is enough, though I may stumble in my going, you do not fall. - Traditional Gaelic Prayer

Composer Notes

“Yet if I may hold your hand in the darkness,
