These are they that follow the Lamb
This simple, almost completely diatonic piece was written in 1859 by John Goss, organist of St Paul's Cathedral from 1838 until his death in 1880.
LYRICS:
These are they which follow the Lamb, whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from
among men, being the first-fruits unto God and to the Lamb. And in their mouth was found no
guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God. (Revelation 14, vv. 4, 5)
Treasures of English Church Music
46 tracks of English a cappella church music, featuring John Rutter conducting the Cambridge Singers, and recorded in the inspiring setting of the Lady Chapel of Ely Cathedral.
“A marvellous collection taken from all ages of Church Music – a mix of the popular and the slightly rarer. This is recorded in Ely Cathedral and it seems to have projected itself into some wonderfully lyric pieces – the opening track of Parsons Ave Maria sets the scene for the rest of the music. This is the Cambridge Singers at their best…” Cathedral Music
