A beautiful new text by Peter Scagnelli is matched with an original tune by Richard Gibala. Simple without being simplistic. The text ties the story of the dreaming and hope of Abraham and Sarah to the prophesy of Isaiah. The music supports the text and blossoms throughout the piece, growing thicker in texture as the piece comes to an end. A very useful piece for Advent services. Handbells play from the score: 3 octaves
