Stirring and majestic, this concertato from the always artful Hal Hopson offers a stunning, yet highly singable setting of this classic hymn. A contrasting "peace to you" section as a hushed vocal underscore is a creative surprise. The glorious final verse includes a soaring soprano obbligato. The optional trumpet duo plus organ is exhilarating. Perfect for Easter, Ascension, and Christ the King.
