B - 3. neděle velikonoční

This responsory for two voices, Soprano and Tenor, is sung in Czech and is suitable for services during the third week of Eastertide. The text is a plea for divine favour and protection, beginning with a refrain asking for God to show His radiant face. It continues with prayers for deliverance, a reminder of God's favour towards the faithful, and a hopeful affirmation of security in God's presence. The two vocal parts can be sung in unison or octaves, and the music explores the devotional character of the text with clear melodic lines.
