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 SSA, SATB, 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 meAll 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…Sarah Quartel
