Mary, Mother, Cup of Peace

According to the textwriter, _x001C_ Sinless though Catholic faith declares her, Mary does share our humanity,_x001D_ and goes on to explore over the four powerful verses of this hymn the interaction of Mary_x0019_ s human life with the divine life of her Son. The musical setting is scored for SAB choir accompanied by keyboard, guitar, and solo instrument. The triple-time pacing is gentle and contemplative which, along with a leisurely turnaround between verses, allows the assembly ample time to reflect on the import of the lyrics they are singing.
