about

Written in 2008. This is a challenging piece representing the gently changing colours of an effulgent sky at dusk. Jesus, of course, is the Light of the World.

lyrics

Pie Jesu Domine,
dona eis requiem;
Pie Jesu Domine,
dona eis requiem sempiternam.

---

Gentle Lord Jesus,
grant them rest;
Gentle Lord Jesus,
grant them eternal rest.
