Slow down – solo voice & SATB a cappella
an homage to Chuck Girard
duration around: 4′
when I have discovered this wonderful song, I have imagined a version for choir a cappella accompanying the solo voice
for the interpretation I suggest to to refer to the version of Chuck Girard:

Description
In the midst of my confusion In the time of desperate need When I am thinking not too clearly A gentle voice does intercede Slow down, slow down, be still Be still and wait On the Spirit of the Lord Slow down and hear His voice And know that He is God In the time of tribulation When I’m feeling so unsure When things are pressing in about me Comes a gentle voice, so still, so pure Slow down, slow down, be still, My child Be still and wait On the Spirit of the Lord Slow down and hear His voice And know that He is God And know that Hе is God
Au milieu de ma confusion Aux heures de grand besoin Quand mes pensées sont troubles Une voix douce intercède Ralentis, ralentis, calme-toi Calme-toi et attends L’Esprit du Seigneur Ralentis et écoute Sa voix Et sache qu’Il est Dieu Au temps de l’épreuve Quand je suis en plein doute Quand tout semble m’oppresser S’élève une voix douce, si calme, si pure Ralentis, ralentis, calme-toi, mon enfant Calme-toi et attends L’Esprit du Seigneur Ralentis et écoute Sa voix Et sache qu’Il est Dieu Et sache qu’Il est Dieu
