Shalom—Dan Forrest.
This tender and comforting work "passes the
peace" as its simple yet elegant melody washes
over the listener, gently unfolding its text with
increasing texture: "Peace I leave with you, my

be afraid." The Hebrew word "shalom" forms the
refrains, and whispers of the word "peace" further
paint the spirit and promise of the text. With piano
and optional violin, this piece is equally at home in
worship or concert settings.
