O Saviour of the World
Praise My Soul

 

This beautiful four part anthem (SATB) was composed by John Goss. Its text is taken from the Antiphon at the Visitation of the Sick, in the Book of Common Prayer.  It is, however, used by choirs the world over at passiontide, and as a general anthem.

We hope you like our arrangement and will join with Sir John in humming his tune, or singing along if you have a copy of the score . . . 

O Saviour of the World

O Saviour of the world,
O Saviour of the world,
Who by thy Cross and precious Blood
Hast redeemed us,
Save us and help us,
Save us and help us.

O Saviour of the world,
O Saviour,
Who by thy Cross and precious Blood
Hast redeemed us,
Save us and help us,
We humbly beseech thee, O Lord,
We humbly beseech thee, O Lord,

O Saviour of the world,
O Saviour of the world,
O Saviour,
Who by thy Cross and precious Blood
Hast redeemed us,
Save us and help us,
We humbly beseech thee, O Lord,
O Saviour of the world,
Save us and help us,
We humbly beseech thee, O Lord.
Amen.
