Where Is My Lamb? - SATB

Uses: Christ the Shepherd, Lent, Baptism

Scripture: Matthew 18:12-13; Psalm 100:3

Written in a folk-song style, the piece unfolds like an ancient story with the choir acting as a sacred troubadour. The voice of the Shepherd is heard calling for the sheep and leaving the ninety and nine to find the little lost lamb. Sentimental but powerful, this would lend itself to extra-musical elements such as dance or pantomime. Precious writing and comforting words remind us that we are always in the care of the Good Shepherd. Duration: ca. 3:11.
