GUEST,UJ (Again...) Songs about 'crossing over' (86* d) RE: Songs about 'crossing over' 21 Jun 06

Now that you've got me rummaging through the collection...

Here's something you don't hear much any more - a Protestant CHANT!;

"Calm On The Bosom of thy God"; 19th Century Funery Chant

And someone mentioned "Weep Not for Me"; This version has a couple of sets of alternative verses, which was not at all uncommon at the time - lyrics and scores were mixed and matched on the fly according to metrical compatability. The score is pretty nondescript IMHO, as a lot of music from this period was - but I do it to the tune of "All Through the Night", which works pretty well.
The chords I worked out by ear and may not be "proper", but they sound OK to me.

"Weep Not For Me"

This is a good excersize in rapid chording, I have found!
