…I want to tell you what the Lord can do for you He can take your life as he did mine and make it anew…
This is a medley of songs composed by Sidney Cox, a native of Northampton who emigrated to Canada at the age of 20 and who eventually became an independent evangelist. A brisk tempo is maintained for the first two songs, giving way to a more lilting feel for the next group of pieces, which then build as the piano writing becomes fuller. Further contrast then comes in the shape of an unaccompanied passage – “By the peaceful shores of Galilee”, which leads to the final Allegro Vivace section, ending with a triumphant 6-part “Hallelujah!”.
