The Passover in Song

Generations past were faced with far fewer distractions than generations present, allowing a more focused gaze upon the cross and its meaning.

As the previous posts have noted, the parallels between Passover and Easter are deep and profound.

Johann Sebastian Bach updated a sixth century verse to give the Lutheran Church a treasured hymn entitled “At the Lamb’s High Feast We Sing.” 

This same hymn is found in most Catholic hymnals. 

Others??? Leave a comment if you know.

Here is this great hymn, in both organ and piano.
