Remembering Home
“Remembering Home” pairs two profound songs of exile: the Latin text of Psalm 137, Super flumina Babylonis, which is the Israelites’ lament from their exile in Babylon, and the spiritual dating from Civil War times, “Sometimes I Feel like a Motherless Child.” Set in F minor, with poignant dissonances in the accompaniment that mirror the anguish of the lyrics, this would be especially appropriate during any season or service of lament, or when worshipping with people who have suffered devastation, displacement, persecution, or oppression. Choir directors will value the ease of execution yet impressive impact to the listener.
