'In My Father's house' is part of a Requiem which I'm composing at present.
The words are from John's Gospel:
"In My Father's house are many mansions:
I go to prepare a place for you.
I will come again and receive you unto Myself:
That, where I am, there ye may be also.
I will not leave you comfortless:
I will come unto you, and see you again.
And your heart shall rejoice:
And your joy no man taketh from you."

*JERUSALEM ORATORIO*
There are plans afoot to record my oratorio 'Jerusalem-Yerushalayim'.
If you're interested in getting involved, either as a sponsor or performer,
please have a look at the synopsis / libretto:
