#694: Sing to the Lord of Harvest
Oct. 20th, 2020 10:43 pmFairly high tenor line, and fast-moving, too--lots of moving eighth notes even when the melody doesn't have them.
"God makes the clouds drop fatness" is kind of bizarre--like, God having an opinion about fatness is almost as good as God's wrestling opinions. But I think this might be related to an Advent chant (adapted from Isaiah) about "drop down, ye heavens, from above." That could also explain "the hills leap up" (God makes the mountains and valleys flat) and "crowns the year" as a harvest/end-of-year song.
