(New
Release!) $1.50
A powerful, descriptive text is brought to life in this lyrical and dramatic musical setting. The message is allegorical in its depiction of Christ as River, Darkness, Beauty, and Banquet. As the structure of the music unfolds, one clearly hears fragments of Amazing Grace shared between the organ and French Horn. The vocal lines are linear and accessible. The convergence of all parts results in a strong anthem with an eloquent power!
