"Gentle" and "comforting" are two words that might describe this setting of Charles Tindley's timeless text. The uplifting original melody is beautifully supported by the choral harmonies in the refrain. The piece builds in intensity and modulates to a final refrain scored for solo voice with SATB choral accompaniment, ending with quasi-improvised intercessions sung in a call-and-response style. This song is ideal for use during Lent or in any liturgical moment calling for comfort.
