Gerard and Mary Chiusano's comforting lyrics capture the salvific trajectory from despair to heavenly consolation through the suffering of Christ. The piano's harp-like figuration in the introduction and short interludes subtly reinforces this message through musical means. The refrain features three-part harmonies and a part for solo instruments fleshes out the setting.
