As noted by the composer, careful attention to pacing and dynamic shape is essential to this piece. The introductory duet between the piano and solo instrument sets a somber, contemplative tone. The five verses, which the composer suggests may be sung by a soloist or unison voices, convey a sense of personal prayer and longing; the full SATB harmonies of the refrain emphasize the heartfelt, collective hope for Christ’s mercy.
