Compass Jerusalem

Compass Jerusalem

4 minutes 49 seconds|  The melody that introduces this piece and recurs throughout was lifted from an accompanying line of First Rodeo in its original form.

The title was inspired by Luke, Chapter 19, Verses 43 and 44: “For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side. And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.” (Image by Painter George Ault.)
