Early Christmas/Epiphany text with traditional English tune, TRUTH FROM ABOVE. Chant-like melodies of stanza 1 evolve into short canon. Contrasting sections in major reflect texts of stanzas 2 and 4, stanza 3 has exotic Eastern flavor, all culminating in transcendent ending. Occasional mild dissonances approached with easy voice-leading. Changing meters flow naturally from text and tune.
