Description:
Ruth Elaine Schram gives us this poignant lament for use during Holy Week with a text based on Psalm 22, spoken by Jesus on Calvary. Listeners will feel the intense suffering of our Lord as He hung dying on the cross. All His pain, frustrations, and sorrow are dramatically expressed in this explicit text with excellent, dramatic accompaniment. Those who used Schram's Not My Will But Thine (A-6603) from 1990 remember her unique ability to capture the emotions of our Lord's sacrifice and express it in music. Eli, Eli, Lama Sabachthani will also create the appropriate tone in which to remember that our Lord gave His life for us. An anthem of intense passion.
