UPC: 763628959289. Tom S. Long. Matthew 25:35-40.

Original anthem From Allen Pote and Tom Long this scriptural paraphrase poses the question, Lord, where have you gone? - and answers - when you love the weak and when you lay down your life, I am revealed in you. The question is sung by a soloist, and the answer comes from the choir. The flowing melodic lines, alternating between unison and harmonized singing, lends itself to a poignant and moving treatment of the Matthew 25 text.

Original hymn with words by William Williams Jay Althouse updated a text by the noted Welsh hymn writer William Williams and set it to original music. The haunting new melody is folk-like in nature - much in the style of an Appalachian folk hymn - and incorporates, both in the accompaniment and the voices, the early American tune Poor Wayfaring Stranger. There are options for vocal solos and the accompaniment is transparent and accessible.
