This heart-touching song, by popular singer Jane Siberry, is one of k.d. lang’s favorites. Beth really hits the mark with this lovely setting of a meaningful lyric. A great feature of your alto section. Performed beautifully here by Elektra Women’s Choir.

COME, MY LIGHT

Take two minutes and eleven seconds out of your hectic day and enjoy the world premiere performance of Evening Grace for SSAA a cappella chorus by Daniel E Gawthrop. Performing at the recent Utah State ACDA conference, the Women’s Chorus of BYU is here conducted by Dr. Sonja Poulter.

Day is dying in the west;
Heav’n is touching earth with rest;
Wait and worship while the night
Sets her evening lamps alight
Through all the sky.

While the deep’ning shadows fall,
Heart of Love, enfolding all,
Through the glory and the grace
Of the stars that veil Thy face,
Our hearts ascend.

When forever from our sight
Pass the stars, the day, the night,
Lord of angels, on our eyes
Let eternal morning rise,
And shadows end.
