Original

The original inspiration for this piece came from the title, which was the last line of a poem I read at a concert. I had a huge amount of trouble getting my teeth around the phrase and this piece became something of a catharsis. The only overlap in text between the poem and this piece is the title. This was also written as a piece for Ephiphany. Having helped to introduce an Epiphany Carol Service at our church, I was looking for an alternative to the Coventry Carol that covered similar themes. Having not found one, I decided to write one myself. The third verse makes a reference to Ramah. This refers to Matthew 2. 18, which describes the coming to pass of Jeremiah's prophecy.
