A classic Easter hymn tune presented in a mix of 5/8 and 6/8, and duple and triple rhythms. Easier than it looks, and it sounds great! Start rehearsals slowly and build in tempo—and suddenly the singers just “feel” it. For more fun, experiment with organ registration (e.g., 8', 2' flutes) or harpsichord if available. For sure, do not overlook the separately published part for flute!
