Description
A setting of the collect from The Book of Common Prayer, this piece is beautifully lyrical and perfectly captures the collect writer's desire for a release from angst. (And who among us doesn't have some of THAT!?) This piece can be sung for almost any occasion.

Lyrics
O God of peace, who hast taught us that in returning and
rest we shall be saved, in quietness and confidence shall be
our strength: By the might of thy Spirit lift us, we pray thee,
to thy presence, where we may be still and know that thou
art God; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
