Now, Even Now, Declare a Fast

A text by Stephen P. Starke is set to the Welsh tune LLEF. This easy-to-learn composition is useful throughout the Lenten season, especially on Ash Wednesday, such as during the imposition of ashes. Written to be flexible, it may be sung by soloists or two-part choir, with an optional SATB stanza, and may be modified in length if desired. An optional part for treble instrument is included. A moving, thoughtful presentation.
