UPC: 785147713807. English. Text Source: Blessed be the God of Israel, based on Luke 1:68–79, alt. Text by James Quinn. Scripture: Luke 1:68–79.
Quinn's words and Joncas' music combine to give voice to the prophecy of Zechariah. This 5-verse paraphrase of the canticle contains two melodies-one for the odd verses, one for the even verses. The third verse is an effective, a cappella SATB setting.
