Sweet Rest

From the first notes of the introduction, this lovely turn on a famous text by Sanford Fillmore Bennett assures us of "sweet rest, when we shall meet at His dear feet, and sing our anthems there." Set in a gently rocking compound meter, it features sensitive SATB choral writing with occasional divisi and stacked harmonies, and a beautifully supportive accompaniment. It is suitable for Lent, memorial services, or any time of year.
