“My Lord! What a Morning” follows the tradition of spirituals by opening with a soulful chorus expressing deep sentiment. The verse that ensues not only introduces musical diversity but also serves as the narrative foundation, providing context for the emotional chorus that follows. This structure creates a compelling ABA format: while the A section vividly describes the falling stars, the B section poignantly alludes to the impending second coming of the Son of God as the catalyst behind this celestial event. This piece captures the stark contrast of the B section through staggered vocal entrances, a brisker tempo, and a crescendo culminating in a hauntingly profound chord on the word “underground” in bar 22. This is predominantly an SAB arrangement, occasionally diverging with nuanced vocal splits in the lowest voice part. The juxtaposition of these elements ensures an evocative and captivating performance, painting a vivid musical picture of this spiritual masterpiece.
