Hear the Voice and Prayer by John Larkin Hopkins — Lyrics
About Hear the Voice and Prayer
A powerful setting for SATB choir, John Larkin Hopkins's Hear the Voice and Prayer is a motet of profound supplication. The English text draws from scripture, beseeching divine attention to a sacred dwelling and imploring mercy. It evokes a sense of earnest, communal pleading, suitable for moments of deep reflection or dedication. The music unfolds with a rich harmonic language, supporting the devotional nature of the text, making it an ideal choice for services or concerts where a moment of earnest prayer is desired.
