All the way home
This work was inspired by the Radcliffe Ladies’ Choir and their motto ‘friendship through singing’. The lilting vocal lines are underpinned by a delicate piano part, and the opening performance direction, ‘contentedly rocking’, describes the overall nature of the piece: peaceful, content, and easy-going. Also available for SATB, unison voices, and for SATB in German.
- Lyrics
Sing to me comfort, sing to me home, Sing to me friendships I have known. Sing me a place where I belong, Joyful, with harmonies sing me All the way home with a song in my heart. All the way home brighten my path and Carry me on, all the way home. There’s a beautiful power in what we bring, There’s strength in the glorious song we sing. Easing all troubles, calming all fears, Joyful with harmonies sing me… Evening brings a shining star, Her ancient anthems from afar. Silence below, her song in the sky. Joyful with harmonies sing me…
