Music Monday--Mendelssohn

Today's Music Monday is a continuation of last week's Hear My Prayer by Mendelssohn.  This is the second part of that beautiful musical prayer, called O for the Wings of a Dove.

  1. Did you sing this one too? It has very high parts and I know they would have been your part.

  4. Lovely, thanks. I imagined that it was written sometime after 1880 or so, but no, it dates from 1844.
