Performance Notes At the start, I wanted to compose a refrain that was easy to sing and, at the same time, triumphant in character. Thus, the melody of the refrain is almost entirely in step-wise motion, slowly building up to a peak three-quarters of the way through. I left the verses to the cantor and the choir, thereby providing the assembly opportunities to “look up” and observe the ritual action of the procession and the gathered assembly. I also included an optional sprinkling rite verse that can be sung in place of the fourth verse during the opening rites. A full score arrangement of this piece is available. –R.M.
