Natalie Sleeth's 'resurrection' text is magnified in Mary McDonald's superb setting, paired with the lovely tune SALLEY GARDENS. The text is filled with rich imagery and was written for Natalie's husband who was dying of cancer. The powerful culmination comes in stanza 3: 'In our end is resurrection; at the last, a victory, unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see.' Useful for memorial services and any theme of resurrection and life eternal.
