All the emotion of the Lenten season is captured in the exquisite poetry of this poignant anthem that includes a haunting oboe obbligato. "The eyes of heaven saw Him come to earth, taking on a human form. They wept for joy upon His humble birth. Now He suffers on the tree, and they cannot bear to see. Cover the earth with a cloud of darkness. Cover the earth with a blackened sky." This mournful, plaintive anthem will be an important part of your Holy Week programming. Highly recommended!
