A truly inspired melody rises like a prayer in this new treatment of a treasured hymn text. A heartfelt petition for enlightenment, the anthem is profound in its message, yet approachable in its musical difficulty. A canon-like dialogue is established as the work unfolds, punctuated by thicker four-part writing throughout. A more through-composed B section offers contrast and a chance for division in the sopranos, lending an ethereal moment, before giving way to a deeply sincere and quiet ending.
