Drop Drop Slow Tears (Song47)

Composer:   Orlando Gibbons
Tune:   Song 47
Arranger:   R. Mather
Words:   Pheneas Fletcher
Drop, drop, slow tears, and bathe those beauteous feet,
which brought from heaven the news and Prince of Peace.

Cease not, wet eyes, his mercies to entreat;
to cry for vengeance sin doth never cease.

In your deep floods drown all my faults and fears;
nor let his eye see sin, but through my tears.

great diction, but more vibrato than I like for church music. And watch your pitch!
