SATB, S solo, and organ. Text by George Herbert. A beautiful setting by a masterful composer.

Notes: This beautiful anthem needs to be sung with a real sense of legato line, at all times shaping the musical phrases to the meaning of the words. Concentrate very carefully on the intervals between notes and the tuning of the SATB chordal passages. A very confident soprano soloist is a must. The composer has been very specific about the dynamic shadings and these must be rehearsed and encouraged. Once the piece is learnt, singers will enjoy performing it time and time again.
