Dearly Departed For

Women’s a’capella Choir

Dearly Departed Duration ~ 6:15

Program Notes

In planning to compose this piece, I researched liturgy from across faiths and found to my surprise that many, like my own hymnal, present a sequence of events with suggested psalms and scripture to be read, and hymns to be sung. Composers across the ages have created requiems and masses to remember a loved one who has passed on. Many people choose popular songs – often favorites of those the deceased. I sought to create a piece, which would be equally appropriate for use in a congregational worship service, in a home, or at the graveside. I integrated fragments of liturgy, scripture, and, De Profundis (Psalm 130, out of the depths), which has been used by composers as diverse as Mozart, Arvo Part, and Jonathan Newman, and by poets such as Alfred Tennyson, Oscar Wilde and Federico Lorca. I’ve interspersed with this, is my own text, asides really, expressing the feelings of the funeral attendees and the innermost thoughts of a grieving family and friends. -­‐-­‐ Christina Rusnak 2016

Performance Notes This piece is meant to be expressive. Tempo marks are guidelines.

Dearly Departed Lyrics We are gathered here today We are here because you’re gone (alt. you died) We are here for you We are gathered here today to mourn Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be consoled (Matthew 5:3) I don’t feel consoled at all I just miss you Dearly Departed, we are here for you Give us grace Give us grace to remember all that was good in her/his life Life is so short, so short Like the flowers in the field, we blossom, and then fade We are gathered here today It doesn’t feel real To commend her/his spirit Please tell me you’re not gone You’re spirit lies in my heart Eternal rest given to her/him, and perpetual light shine upon her/him (Psalm 130/ Requiem AEternam)) Courage and faith to those who are mourning Please give us strength I will remember the joy we shared Joy and Laughter I will remember laughter I will remember sorrow Your voice was music to my ears I remember love we shared Blessed, Blessed Eternal rest given to her/him, and perpetual light shine upon her/him Blessed are those who mourn We are gathered here today You lie in my heart Like the flowers in the field Like the grasses in the wind, we scatter I remember, I’ll remember always We are gathered here Rememb’ring We are gathered here today We are here because you LIVED.
