Hear what the voice from heaven proclaims by Thomas Clark — Lyrics
Hear what the voice from heav'n proclaims
For all the pious dead:
Sweet is the savour of their names,
And soft their sleeping bed.
They die in Jesus, and are bless'd;
How kind their slumbers are!

About Hear what the voice from heaven proclaims
Thomas Clark sets a familiar English hymn text in this sacred anthem for SATB choir. The words offer solace and assurance regarding those who have died in faith, describing their rest from earthly struggles and their eternal reward. The music reflects the comforting message, providing a dignified and moving setting suitable for devotional occasions. This piece is a fine example of hymnody adapted for choral forces, offering a reflective and uplifting experience for both singers and listeners.
