SKU: A0.818196

Composed by Philip Le Bas. Christian,Praise & Worship,Sacred. Octavo. 4 pages. Philip Le Bas #6660839. Published by Philip Le Bas (A0.818196).

An original setting, for SSA choir and piano by Philip Le Bas, of the poem "Quiet Peace" by Amy Carmichael (1867-1951) in the form of a prayer.

The piano here provides a constantly flowing ritornello throughout the verses, while the voices weave around it in a gentle wave of prayerful reflection. The poet feels an interior "quiet peace" while all around her there are storms and disquiet, because she knows that her Lord hears her voice. The setting is deliberately simple and undemanding, and it should be sung quietly, meditatively and without rushing.

O Lord my heart is all a prayer,
But it is silent unto thee;
I am too tired to look for words,
I rest upon thy sympathy
To understand when I am dumb;
And well I know thou hearest me.

I know thou hearest me because
A quiet peace comes down to me,
And fills the places where before
Weak thoughts were wandering wearily;
And deep within me it is calm,
Though waves are tossing outwardly.

Amy Carmichael (1867-1951)
