Abide With Me
Filled with vivid text-painting, this stirring arrangement of the cherished hymn features "swiftly ebbing" eighth-note figures, striking open fifths breaking "thru clouds," warm, rich harmonies reducing to unisons as "glories fade away," and much more. Heartfelt expressions move from simple chordal writing to increasingly more and more earnest supplication, as rhythmic energy is amplified by the eighth-note figures and the sopranos soar above the rest of the choir. The piece concludes with the choir quietly and reverently imploring, "Lord, abide with me."
