My Song in the Night

The beloved Southern folk hymn finds new life in this rich devotional setting for choir and piano with optional violin or flute. The timely text reminds us that God hears our lament and answers with his presence even in the dark of night. Quotes of the Lelia N. Morris hymn NEARER, STILL NEARER deepen the impact of this setting with a shift from minor mode to major. "Unto thee, O Lord, in affliction I call, my comfort by day and my song in the night."
