Motet: Ah, my dear Lord - Barry Ferguson - Christ Church Arcadia

Motet: Ah, my dear Lord
Text: Henry Vaughan (from THE INCARNATION AND PASSION)
Music: Barry Ferguson
Members of the choir of Christ Church Arcadia (Pretoria), directed by George King
Ah my dear Lord - what could’st Thou spy
in this impure, rebellious clay
that made Thee thus resolve to die
for those that kill Thee every day?
Oh what strange wonders could Thee move
to slight Thy precious blood and breath?
Sure it was Love, my Lord,
for Love is only stronger far than Death.
