The familiar words of Charles Wesley are treated to a thoughtful new musical fitting by respected musician Ken Berg. Beginning in E minor with treble voices in an unadorned unison the voices soon break into parts eventually opening into 4 parts. Then the men join the chorus on the theme eventually letting the women rest and move into a 4-part portion of their own. All resume together and end quietly in E major. Medium difficulty for more advanced church choirs.

Picture a traditional stone-walled church – beautiful and powerful. Now picture it bursting with enthusiastic worshipers. There is a time-honored confidence to the musical statement Martin has given to the singers and thewords march well to the tune. A cello adds a warm strength to the anthem. The musical picture becomes complete when the opening phrase ends with the prayer “fill this house with grace.”
