Ajoutée par magataganm, 28 Nov 2012 ‘Spirit Of God, Unseen as the Wind’ is sung to the tune of the traditional Scottish folk tune: the ‘Skye Boat Song’. It has the advantage of being singable right from the beginning, particularly with children and with elders, who often are slower to embrace new songs. As a folk tune, the music lends itself to a variety of musical styles from organ to ensemble. The song references the union between the work of the Holy Spirit and the Bible. One could quibble about how ‘God’s voice is heard’ in Scripture, but it’s a vast improvement on the idea that the Spirit reveals God’s Word and will without any reference to the Bible at all. The structure is unusual in that it follows a chorus/verse/chorus/verse/chorus format. The lyrics were penned by Margaret Old using "The Skye Boat Song" (which can also be heard at: http://musescore.com/mike_magatagan/the-skye-boat-song- for-harp--flutes as well as http://musescore.com/mike_magatagan/spirit-of-god-unsee n-as-the-wind-for...). I created this arrangement for the Sierra Vista United Methodist Church (SVUMC). |
