Composed by J. C. Lowry. Arranged by Lowenberg Kennet. Choral. Choral. Tune name: Pisgah. Sacred. Octavo. 12 pages. GIA Publications #6422. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-6422).UPC: 785147642206. English. Text Source: Compiled from hymns in The Sacred Harp, 1844. Text by Philip Doddridge.
Masterful arrangement of a Sacred Harp tune. Sections take turn singing the tune against an ostinato-type counter melody. The key change and piano glissandi in the middle verse are a delight to the ear, and the final verse sings hopefully of "that great day when our Redeemer shall come down and shadows pass away.".
