O Clavis David

O Key of David, and Sceptre of the house of Israel; who openest and no one shutteth, who shuttest and no one openeth: come and bring the prisoners out of the dungeon, from the prison those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death.

Charles Hubert Hastings Parry (1848-1918), Chorale prelude on St Mary

“O Lord turn not thy face from me
Who lie in woeful state.”
