If I Can Sing
SATB with piano
Moderately Challenging
Poetry by Sara Teasdale
From my spirit’s gray defeat,
From my pulse’s flagging beat,
From my hopes that turned to sand
Sifting through my close-clenched hand,
From my own fault’s slavery,
If I can sing, I still am free.
For with my singing I can make
A refuge for my spirit’s sake,
A house of shining words, to be
My fragile immortality.

SATB div. with piano
Moderately Challenging

Behold the great Creator makes
Himself a house of clay,
a robe of virgin flesh he takes

In form of servant now the Lord,
our God in cradle lies.
