Announcements
Offertory Anthem Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day Choir
Tune: Traditional Carol; Setting by Richard Shephard (1949-2021)
Tomorrow shall be my dancing day; would my true love did so chance to see the legend of my play, to call my true love to my dance; Chorus: Sing, oh! my love, oh! my love, this have I done for my true love. For thirty pence Judas me sold, his covetousness for to advance: Mark whom I kiss, the same do hold! The same is he shall lead the dance. Chorus Before Pilate the Jews me brought, where Barabbas had deliverance; They scourged me and set me at nought, judged me to die to lead the dance. Chorus Then on the cross hanged I was, where a spear my heart did glance;There issued forth both water and blood, to call my true love to my dance. Chorus Then up to heaven I did ascend, where now I dwell in sure substance on the right hand of God, that man may come unto the general dance.
