English. Text Source: Psalm 46:10. Text by Martin J. Willett. Scripture: Psalm 46:10.
This gentle, introspective piece makes a beautiful meditation for any choir. The text was inspired by a poem by an English Quaker called "On Morning Worship." The changing meters naturally follow the speech rhythm of the words. The mostly two- and three-part writing - with a few measures of SATB - make the piece good for smaller choirs. The piano accompaniment provides the "flowing" nature needed in performance.
