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!
