Ralph Vaughan Williams, 1872-1958 |

10.10.10 with alleluias |
Key: |
G Major |
Notes: |
Ps. 84 is usually associated with introspective and quiet strength. The association of the tune SINE
NOMINE with the text “For All the Saints” suggests a different interpretation. In lofty tones we imagine the
heavenly dwelling of God, our final home. This setting would be particularly appropriate at funerals or other
celebrations of our hope of eternal life with God. |
