For SATB (with divisions) and organ, with optional congregation Here John Rutter follows Vaughan Williams' precedent in setting this text from the 4th-century Orthodox liturgy of St James of Jerusalem to a French carol melody. The result is a hymn which is by turn haunting and powerful, with a modal tonality evoking the sound-world of plainchant.
