Vocal Forces: Four-part equal, Four-part mixed

Text Source: "The Holy Spirit, heav'nly Dove," Isaac Watts, 1674–1748, alt.; "We Are Not Left to Walk Alone," Mary Jane Walker, 1816–1878, alt.

Music Source: Early North American hymn tune

Series: Simple Gifts

Difficulty Level: E

Description:

This very singable tune is paired with verses of two hymns about the Holy Spirit. After a unison exposition of the melody (first with the Watts verse, then with the Walker), a 4-part canon ensues that is fun to sing and hear! The accompaniment is accessible to various skill levels. Keep a steady tempo, especially through the canon.
