Comments:
Flute. Evocative Of Folk Hymns From An Earlier Era, Sheldon Curry's Transporting Melody On Frederick Faber's 19Th Century Poem Is Absolutely Gorgeous! The Vocals Are Simple And Elegant, And The Meter Changes In The Melody Line Flow Seamlessly From One To Another. Lyric And At Times More Dramatic, This Is A Song Of Steadfast Assurance That Will Communicate Directly To The Soul Of The Listening Congregation.
