UPC: 785147783404. English. Text Source: Based on Romans 8:35-39. Text by Shirley Erena Murray. Scripture: Romans 8:35–39.
Here’s one of those pieces that is immediately appealing, easy to learn, but crafted to withstand time. Which is a good thing, as True’s melodic setting of Murray’s take on Romans 8 has many opportunities for use! It is preferred that a cantor sing the verses, unless the choir has excellent diction. Use a soloist on the verses, if desired. .
