Ave, Mary, Full of Grace - Hymn for Candlemas
-
I composed this simple hymn for Candlemas/Purification of the B.V.M., our parish's solemnity of title. The text itself is a sequence for this feast, in translation by W.J. Copeland, an Anglican clergyman.
Thoughts welcome. Also if anyone wants to take up the challenge of harmonizing this little work, I would be interested!
