Davison incorporates the famous text, “Fare Thee Well, My Love”, (also known as “The Turtle Dove”), but with an entirely new melody. The energetic 6/8 time, use of open fifths, and the Dorian mode give this song an Irish feel, which will appeal to many audiences and choristers.

The third movement of Craig Courtney’s trilogy, Divine Encounter, The Blessing is a newly-composed benediction based on Numbers 6:24-26. As Jesus blessed and multiplied the fish and bread, so God blesses the offering we bring to Him. The melody, which is one large-scale arc, is stated twice, creating a simple, sincere message of peace and rest. Suitable for use on its own, or as part of the three-movement work; effective in both worship and concert settings.
