There’s a place of quiet stillness ‘tween the light and shadows reach
Where the hurting and the hopeless seek everlasting peace
Words of men and songs of angels whisper comfort bittersweet
Mending grief and life eternal where joy and sorrow meet
There is a place where hope remains
In crowns of thorns and crimson stains
And tears that fall on Jesus’ feet
Where joy and sorrow meet
There’s a place the lost surrender and the weary will retreat
Full of grace and mercy tender in times of unbelief
For the wounded there is healing, strength is given to the weak
Broken hearts find love redeeming where joy and sorrow meet
There’s a place of thirst and hunger where the roots of faith grow deep
And there is rain and rolling thunder when the road is rough and steep
There is hope in desperation there is victory in defeat
At the cross of restoration where joy and sorrow meet
I am interested in finding a solo copy of the above in the Baritone or lower Tenor range... Please advise if you can assist me.... I am also looking for a solo arrangement of "The King of Love My Shepard Is"
Avalon recorded this song in 4 parts - it's a beautiful piece. It's great for a choir, but several of the key changes in this particular arrangement are a little awkward. Somewhere out there is a solo recording which is also lovely. It doesn't have the build of the multi-parts, but skips the strange key changes, and allows focus on the meaning of the lyrics. Great song for your last Holy Week service before Easter morning!
