SATB a cappella. Text by John Byrom. Lush and beautiful in a homophonic, hymnlike, "English-style" strophic setting. 

Notes: A simple and very effective introit or communion anthem. It would be worth practicing some individual lines as some of the intervals may need looking at, particularly in the tenor part. Singers need to think of the verses in two four-bar phrases and stagger the breathing to accomplish a smooth line. Singers should be encouraged to build a sensitive flexibility into the phrases and adhere to the dynamic ebb and flow.
