May You Now Find Your Rest

SATB Octavo

A new setting of Philip Paul Bliss's text "Man of Sorrows! What A Name!" that's both contemplative and expansive. Designed for approachability and use in worship services and concerts, the choral writing makes frequent use of two-part textures and unisons while the piano handles the textural and harmonic interest. The last verse is set in a modified version of Bliss's original tune that carries a triumphant message of Christ's victory over death, and climaxes with the first and only statement in the work of "What a Savior!"; the work then ends contemplatively, signifying that while Christ's victory is assured, we are still waiting on earth for His return. An ideal anthem for Lent or Easter Sunday.

Performance time: 3.5'

Man of Sorrows

A grand and sweeping setting of Augustus Toplady's beloved hymn, utilizing James Ward's New City Fellowship tune as well as the original Toplady tune. The work features a challenging, sensitive, and collaborative piano part that colors the story of the hymn even as the choir delivers the text, with choral writing designed to be evocative without being inapproachable. This makes for a gratifying and complex setting that dwells on the deeper meanings of Toplady's text, and relates it to the walk of the individual believer. This work is designed for sacred concerts, appropriate for advanced highschool choirs and collegiate choral ensembles. It would also work well for church choirs, especially in special services and concerts where a six-minute anthem is appropriate. 

For mixed voices and piano | Performance time: ~6'

Orchestration and parts due to premiere in April of 2026.


Special thanks to James Ward for use of his tune, used with permission.

Rock of Ages

A sweeping, dramatic treatment of Charles Wesley's beloved hymn, set to a new tune. The work provides an individualistic opportunity to experience the emotional depths of the hymn, and takes time to vividly paint the author's text. Features a sumptuous piano accompaniment and a striking cello solo. 

The choral parts are designed to be approachable for the singer. Even in complex moments, a comfortable tutti line grounds the choir as solos for small groups of singers take flight. This work would be appropriate for an advanced highschool or collegiate choir, sacred concerts, and services of worship where a six-minute anthem are desired.

For mixed voices, piano, and cello with solo divisi | Performance time: 6'

The work will receive its world premiere in April, 2026.

Speak, Lord,
Your servants hear You:
Bring calm to our hearts this day.

Lead, Lord,
And may we follow,
For joys are found in Your way.
