A time-honored poem brings the promise of spring into an insightful message of faith in this artfully composed anthem. With classic purity, the song emerges out of a delicate pattern from the piano. The choral writing uses unison and two-part textures mingled with fuller sounds for both clarity and power. Changes in tempo and a wide dynamic vocabulary invite choirs to linger on each precious phrase, sharing the abundant life that is ours through grace.
