This Southern Harmony tune is paired with two texts: a Triduum hymn and a hymn to the Holy Spirit. Nicely arranged for three mixed voices, the choral writing develops as the piece progresses through its three stanzas. This setting can be sung on Holy Thursday, and again with the alternate text on Pentecost—or the Sundays leading up to that feast.
