Words by George Herbert
Music by Robert G. McCutchan
Arranged by Benjamin Harlan
This fresh setting of the George Herbert text and Robert McCutchan melody is arranged in a spirited six-eight by veteran arranger Benjamin Harlan. After a brief call to worship, SA and TB parts sing the hymn melody in energetic echo phrases. An original section comprises the Bridge, providing harmonic and rhythmic interest. The hymn melody returns with echo singing, and the piece concludes with a majestic ending.
