Let Your Voice Be Heard
A moving, powerful musical statement against any persecution of Christians around the world. With this work, Markus Gück and Birgit Schlicke give a voice to those who are persecuted.
The mixed choir and soloist are accompanied by the band. The saxophone part can be played by another instrument. Rousing gospel jazz for jazz choirs, church choirs and gospel choirs.
“…There is this man I read about,
a pastor caring for his flock, preached in secret places always devout.
Then he was tortured horrid shock. People said “He loves the Lord!”
Tell me why, oh why is he ignored?
He’s worth much more than just one tear It’s time to speak out loud and clear.
Hear them screaming and feel their pain. Don’t ever ask “Why should I bother”? …
Show some action let’s shift the gear.
It’s time to speak out loud and clear.”
