Review:
Recalling the American shape-note tradition of centuries past, Linda Lamb’s arrangement of this familiar tune is deeply inspired by the hymn’s text. The music unfolds with a modal harmonic approach and memorable contrapuntal lines, ending in major with the sense that the Savior has called the listener into His fold. 48 measures. Key of c minor and Eb Major.
