Description:
Based on Frederic Faber's nineteenth-century text "There's a Wideness in God’s Mercy," this smoothly flowing setting by Larry Shackley provides a contemporary voice and twenty-first-century relevance to this historic text. At the same time, brief mentions of "kyrie eleison" underscore the timelessness of its message. This is a beautiful choice for Lenten and Transfiguration services or any time of the year.
