Uses: Reflection ConcertScripture: Isaiah 40:31Once you begin hearing this piece you are drawn in...you want to sing it. The “eagle's wings” text is one of the most frequently set tomusic and yet this one sounds like it has always been there but not revealed until now. The essence of “wait” is captured in the opening section which gives way to a new tempo building with the “mounting onwings.” The true soaring takes place with a 12/8 meter the voices building in triumph. A final return to the “waiting” theme provides an assurance that has permeated the entire composition. Excellent for churchand school.
