This Charles Wesley text, set to CHODAN, is a tender, yet emphatic statement of faith and commitment. Scored for SATB chorus with piano and optional violin (part printed in the SATB octavo) this anthem is suitable for Lent, communion or general worship during a time of confession and assurance of pardon. Also available in SSA voicing (BP1984).

My adult choir fell in love with this anthem from the first read-through. The choral colors and nuances are gently constructed, and the accompaniment is impeccably crafted. This selection will be used with some of YouthCUE's more advanced groups in future seasons.
Selected for the 2014 Labor Day at the Cathedral (for adult singers), this anthem will be sung by 200 adults in the National Cathedral with full orchestra.
