Description
Solo Voice, SATB Chorus, Piano
Editor: John Michael Cooper
This is one of two short sacred choruses and two sacred songs on the same texts that Bonds composed in 1968. The words were written by her friend and frequent collaborator Janice Lovoos, a multifaceted artist, critic, and librettist. This work reflects Bonds’s lifelong involvement with church singers and church choirs, offering high-quality music that does not exceed the technical abilities of proficient amateurs. Bonds’s music is largely diatonic, with plentiful major-seventh chords that reflect the influence of popular song of the 1960s.
