5. Lead me to peace
Kevin Lane

This prayer is a well known adaptation of a mantra found in the Hindu Upanishads and was first publicly used in July 1981 by Mother Teresa in the Anglican church St James', Piccadilly in London.

The prayer provides a moment of reflection; asking the listener to share in a journey challenging disunity, violence and prejudice.

6. Our lady sat within her bow'r
Kevin Lane

The words of this carol were written by the Reverend George Ratcliffe Woodward (1848-1934). He was an Anglican priest and prolific lyricist, penning many carols such as Ding-dong Merrily on High, Past 3 O’clock and This Joyful Eastertide.

The composer found these words in the The Cambridge Carol-Book, Being Fifty-Two Songs For Christmas, Easter And Other Seasons (1924). Our Lady Sat Within Her Bow’r tells a familiar story: the text hearkening back to the medieval picture of the Madonna, with the Rev. Woodward using many words from the 15th century: bow’r, bairn, gan, and the very well known Lalay Lula.

The music is also reflective of the period, with an easy flow of melodic lines found across every part of the choir. The rise and fall of the main motif rocks alike the cradle envisioned by the author. The whole carol will benefit from the choir allowing space around the ends of phrases.
