Composer Note

“The congregational hymn on which this anthem is based is a favorite at my Cincinnati parish of Calvary Episcopal Church; it is sung fervently during the Lenten season and other times when discipleship and the cross are particularly emphasized. This anthem setting (adapted from a piano solo in my book, Transformations print | digital) attempts to capture the assertive, visceral text and tune.”

—Howard Helvey
