Arranged by Lisa Stafford. WLP Choral Series. Christian, Worship. Octavo. 11 pages. Published by World Library Publications (WL.008815).

This much loved text, set to the tune PICARDY, is skillfully arranged for voices, organ, and handbells by Oklahoma composer Lisa Stafford. The stark organ texture in the opening verse sets the plaintive mood and provides a foundation for the melody line as the handbells ring softly above. Verse 2 and 3 emphasize a four-part choral structure, the latter stanza written for voices alone and employing a cunning use of contrary motion between SA and TB. An organ interlude initiates a running eighth-note figure that segues into and continues through the final verse as all forces unite.
