THY WILL BE DONE

"-THY WILL BE DONE-" is a reverent and supplicatory response composed specifically for the Prayer of the Faithful during the Mass. With its simple, earnest plea, the piece allows the congregation and choir to unite their intentions, asking that God's will be manifest on earth. The melody carries a gentle, petitionary tone that perfectly suits the solemnity of the intercessions.

The composer designed this piece with the practical flow of the liturgy in mind. A helpful performance note at the bottom of the score instructs choirs to sing the full arrangement for the first and final intercessions, while using a shortened version—beginning with a Tenor and Bass introduction—for the middle prayers. This thoughtful structure keeps the liturgical action moving smoothly while maintaining a prayerful atmosphere in the choir loft and the pews.
