Be Thou my judge, O Lord

These powerful words from Psalm 139 implore God to search us and know our hearts. The composer sets this plea in an anthem for SATB choir, the voices working together to convey the weight of the text. The music reflects the introspection and earnest supplication of the lyrics, asking for divine guidance and discernment. This is a moving sacred work, suitable for services where reflection on one's faith and relationship with the divine is central.
