Preaching a gospel of religious tolerance and unconditional love, the message of early American minister John Murray (1741-1815) is as relevant and refreshing today as it was during his own time. Alfred S. Cole's oft-quoted rendering of Murray's universalist gospel, with its "anti-hellfire-and-brimstone" message, is beloved by people of many faiths all around the world.
Elizabeth Alexander brings her Appalachian roots and inventive ear to this rousing song of commission, with sweet gospel harmonies, a soulful piano accompaniment, and an overlay of fierce compassion.
Go Out! may also be performed as part of the concert-length work, Go Out!
