composer: David Barton
Text: George Stringer Rowe
Duration: 4:15
SATB, flute, piano
G.F. Brockless, an organist well-known in UK Methodism, composed a tune which he felt more aptly reflected the lilting cradle song feel of the text. Sadly, since the publication of Hymns & Psalms in 1983, the tune has fallen out of use. It is, however, a setting which the composer feels should be more widely used, hence its use in this arrangement for SATB, flute and piano.
