- Christian Forshaw's heavenly arrangement of Orlando Gibbons' much-loved choral staple was originally written to include a soprano saxophone descant, but here includes the top line sung by a soprano soloist. We hope you love it as much as we love singing it, and we're really excited to be performing this in concert at St Bartholomew-the-Great in London on 13th June.

This recording was filmed live at St Mary's Church, Ealing in March 2024.

Drop, drop, slow tears,
And bathe those beauteous feet
Which brought from Heaven
The news and Prince of Peace.
Cease not, wet eyes,
His mercy to entreat;
To cry for vengeance
Sin doth never cease.
In your deep floods
Drown all my faults and fears;
Nor let His eye
See sin, but through my tears.

Rosanna’s voice is stunning. Huge congratulations to her and to the whole choir on this performance.
How can I listen to more rosanna's singing she sings like an Angel
Every once in a while I see or hear something so beautiful it reorders my place in this world. Looking most high to God, I'm reminded that being humble is not in conflict with true freedom, but its source. What great works this choir has accomplished!
Inspires absolute awe! Such exquisite, pure tones and tight, polished harmonies. Tenebrae never fails to deliver us into the Presence. Thank you.
Ihr habt dieses Lied so wunderbar vorgetragen! Beeindruckend auch die wunderschöne Oberstimme! Danke für den Höhegenuß!
The sound of heaven.
Ten seconds and I had tears in my eyes, 20 seconds and I was a wreck 😭🥹
I love this piece so much, what a pleasure to hear you sing this
Angels voice's, bliss for the mind and soul, thank you❤
Thank You, Nigel Short And Tenebrae For This Beautiful Gift Of Music 🎶
Stunning as ever.... Gibbons was a genius. This choir... Jeez... Sublime. ❤
Absolutely beautiful singing - choir and sop soloist - just perfection all round.
„…Notes that wing their heavenly ways
To join the choirs above.“
Heavenly, yes it is indeed!
Beautiful, I hope I can see you live at some point.

Lyrics :
1 Drop, drop, slow tears, and bathe those beauteous feet,
which brought from heaven the news and Prince of Peace.
2 Cease not, wet eyes, his mercies to entreat;
to cry for vengeance sin doth never cease.
3 In your deep floods drown all my faults and fears;
nor let his eye see sin, but through my tears.
My neighbor is listening to rap... 😐
Oh dear...kind of kills the mood,doesn't it
@@unseelie63 breaks my heart.... (lol)
This reply back was completely unnecessary it had nothing to do with giving her a compliment on how good she's singing worship please do not do that
@@bessie9755 I'm not sure why you are trying to start a fight over what amounts to light humor. Also, a joke pointing out the juxtaposition between the two IS a compliment to her, it's just over your head. Do better yourself before you try to police other people. (& stop listening to rap)
This arrangement is completely unnecessary. It's wonderful.
Triste saber que tudo isso será destruído de proposito. O belo, o transcendente, a arte, o divino... Tem se tornado quase um crime. Cultura progressista amaldiçoada.
Lovely voices, but Gibbons does *not* require this kind of self-gratifying and tacky embellishment.

It is beautiful singing that is impossible to ignore.
