A substantial unaccompanied choral piece whose frequent meter changes result in a free rhythm of mixed long and short notes well suited to carrying this classic 17th-century text. Minimal divisi required. Enough of the musical material repeats (often in different vocal configurations) to make learning this piece go rather quickly.One of three pieces in a set (see also "By-by Lullay," G-6996, and "Christmas Bells," G-6997)
