Terry W. York has written a significant text affirming that the Christ of the past is the same Christ who calls us now. David Schwoebel's confident and musical melody propels the piece forward. The hymn, "How Firm a Foundation" is incorporated, allowing for optional congregational participation. A tender middle section includes some a cappella singing with lush harmonies, and the confident original melody returns with fresh resolve. The piece ends dramatically with a high moment of praise.
