Anybody tell me if this exists in an organ arrangement please? I vaguely remember having seen it listed somewhere many moons ago.

 

Would be happy with piano or even an orchestral score.

 

Needed for Funeral this Thursday - if anyone can help i'd be grateful. PM if you could lend me a copy.

 

Cheers

PS - It's listed on Amazon as arranged by Purcell J Mansfield, published by Paxton in 1964 but "currently unavailable".

 

Help in locating a copy very gratefully received!

 

Thanks

For the record, I now have a piano arrangement, courtesy of an Australian member of the Anglican Church Music Forum.

 

If anyone wants, or has need of a copy, PM me.

I'm a lot more intrigued to know what happened the day after the last sleep.

 

Did she die?

It refers to her Assumption into heaven after her death.

Oh! You mean THAT virgin. The BVM.

 

I wasn't quite sure whether it was one of the unwise ones, which became to subject of a delightfully unfortunate sermon by a Methodist Minister, who summed up his address with, "So brethren, are we going to remain awake with the wise virgins, or are we going to sleep with the unwise virgins?" (I think it was Sir David Frost who told this story).

 

:P
