That American "R"
Come, O Christ, and reign among us,King of love and Prince of Peace;
Hush the storm of strife and passion,
Bid its cruel discords cease.
By Your patient years of toiling,
By Your silent hours of pain,
Quench our fevered thirst of pleasure,
Stem our selfish greed of gain.
After working with all these "R"s today in just one stanza for choir, I'm doubly glad that our choir's Easter anthem this spring is Randall's Thompson's "Alleluia." It contains only two words--Alleluia and Amen--and neither one has an R!
