O Come and Follow Me

Rick Modlin, Owen Alstott

Topically rich and musically invigorating, this song is ideal for the introductory rite as a gathering song and equally effective as a sending forth song. Alstott’s lyrics are a call to action to live the Gospel with a special emphasis on discipleship, faith, global family, social concern, stewardship, and peace. Modlin’s joyful musical setting echoes this call with a lively 6/8 meter, opening melodic jumps in each phrase, snappy dotted rhythms, and a striking use of the modal minor dominant at cadential moments. It is scored for two-part choir with piano and guitar accompaniment.
