Boosey and Hawkes

collapse expand iconDescription

This piece and its prayer of save me can be approached from a perspective of simplicity and serenity, or of deepest anxiety. The intention is that for all of the anxious undercurrents in the song, it could be sung quietly and devoutly in a Christmas Eve service by a soloist or choir of any age and any mix of voices. Duration: ca. 2:40.
