Seek a Sign, the Prophet Counseled

This Advent piece is upbeat and driving. The darkness of its minor key is balanced by the energetic syncopations which musically depict the excitement of the lyrics. According to the author, the lyrics "celebrate the events leading up to the birth of Jesus - but in such a way that the hymn could also be used during the Christmas season." The vocal arrangement is split into two parts for high and low voices, with an optional fifth verse descant.
