In this trembling shadow, cast
from those boughes which thy winds shake,
Farre from human troubles plac’d,
Songs to the Lord would I make,

About In this trembling shadow
Composed for SATB choir, Jennifer Bastable's In this trembling shadow offers a devotional moment, perhaps suited for a quiet time of reflection or a service of Compline. The English text speaks of seeking inner light and spiritual preparation before approaching sacred duties, a theme that resonates with introspection and quiet contemplation. The composer's setting captures the essence of this plea, with the rich harmonies of the choir creating an atmosphere of sincere supplication. It is a piece that invites the singers and listeners alike to consider the presence of the divine and the journey towards spiritual clarity.
