About Behold now, bless the Lord
Ross Jallo’s Behold now, bless the Lord is an anthem for SATB choir, setting a text that draws from Psalm 134. This psalm, also known as a Song of Ascents, is a call to praise and bless God, particularly for those serving in the house of the Lord. The composer uses both the original Latin and an English translation, allowing for flexibility in performance. It is well-suited for services where the theme of continuous praise and devotion is central, offering a rich, devotional experience for both singers and listeners. The setting is designed to convey a sense of solemnity and uplift, appropriate for moments of communal prayer and thanksgiving.
