And the Lord Delivered Him Before Us

SATB, Orchestra

SATB, Piano Reduction

Fierce, powerful bloodthirsty chorus of the successes of Moses in battle, from the oratorio Moses Facing Jordan. Not evident in the first page of the sample image, but highly rhythmic and colorfully interesting in harmony and melody. Please look at the full perusal score or the larger but clearer pdf sample pages.

By the composer of Lovelife Dances and Sea Fever

 

     And the Lord our God delivered him before us.
     And we smote him, and his sons, and all his people. 
     And we took all his cities at that time.
     And we utterly destroyed the men and the women 
     And the little children, we left none to remain.

         from Deuteronomy
