Blest Are You Lord - an offertory hymn

I have always liked this song, but I did not realise that it was composed by a priest in India.

Rev Father Aniceto Nazareth from the archidioce of Mumbai composed this song as part of his repertoire in saying masses at his local diocese.

Fr Nazareth did  not have a formal training in music. His colleagues attested that his talents in composition emanated from his strong interest in music and the desire to use highly suitable and affective tunes at different parts of the Eucharist.

He died in 2021.

This is my rendition of Fr Nazareth's beautiful hymn.
