High Voice,Vocal Solo - Level 2 - SKU: A0.1141419 Composed by Todd Marchand. Christian,Christmas,Religious,Sacred. 5 pages. Con Spirito Music #741745. Published by Con Spirito Music (A0.1141419). William Blake (1757-1827), a seminal figure in the history of the poetry and visual art of the Romantic Age, published the lyric poem The Lamb in his collection, Songs of Innocence, in 1789.The Lamb is presented as from the viewpoint of, and in the voice of, a child. In the first stanza, the child asks the lamb if it knows its Creator; in the second, it tells the creature, by means of metaphor, that its Creator is the Lord Jesus Christ, who like the lamb took on the flesh of a created being, â€œlittle,â€ â€œmeek,â€ and â€œmild.â€ The child declares that he/she shares with the creature the name of the One who is, in Christian belief, both the sacrificial Lamb and the Shepherd of his flock. Finally, the child pronounces a benediction: â€œLittle lamb, God bless thee!â€This new setting of The Lamb for voice and keyboard accompaniment is intended to evoke the simplicity of the text, and therefore should be performed simply yet expressively, with subtle rubato (flexibility in tempo) to give emphasis to the text.Little lamb, who made thee? / Dost thou know who made thee,Gave thee life, and bid thee feed / By the stream and o'er the mead;Gave thee clothing of delight, / Softest clothing, woolly, bright;Gave thee such a tender voice, / Making all the vales rejoice?Little lamb, who made thee? / Dost thou know who made thee?Little lamb, I'll tell thee; / Little lamb, I'll tell thee:He is called by thy name, / For He calls Himself a Lamb.He is meek, and He is mild, / He became a little child.I a child, and thou a lamb, / We are called by His name.Little lamb, God bless thee! / Little lamb, God bless thee!Soprano range C4-G5; Tenor range C3-G4Â©Copyright 2022 Todd Marchand / Con Spirito Music (ASCAP).
