Pristine in its conception, this anthem is the fragile invocation of a contrite heart. The expressive ballad is a singular prayer, not for the usual blessings but for a purer life of service. Set with tuneful arches and enriching harmonies, the keyboard writing is supportive but decorative and evocative to the function of the piece. Use of a soloist brings an essential element of authenticity to the presentation. Gorgeous! Score and Parts (vc, syn) available as digital download.
