Description
Two-Part Choir and Organ. A beautiful and easy setting of Thomas Cranmer's (1489-1556) collect. Great anytime, but wonderful as an introit or during communion.
(Originally, the collect for the Second Communion on Easter Day and also the First Sunday after Easter Day; now for Friday in Easter Week).

Lyrics
Almighty father,
whiche hast geuen thy only sonne
to dye for our sinnes, and
to rise againe for oure iustificacion;
Graunte us so to putte awaye
the leauen of malyce and wickednesse,
that we maye alwaye serue thee
in purenesse of liuing and trueth;
through Jesus Christe oure Lorde. Amen.
