A haunting refrain featuring a minor-mode pentatonic melody with expressive leaps is a highlight of this trilingual octavo; it is paired with four verses in each of the three languages, the tonality of which never ranges far from the home chord of C minor, mirroring the feeling of peace and rest communicated by the lyrics, based on Psalm 23(22). It is scored for unison choir-though the two-part descant on the refrain allows for varying options with the vocal harmony- accompanied by keyboard, guitar, and solo instrument in C.
