This haunting, driving setting of Isaiah 12:2-6 was composed for an Easter Vigil service in 2005. The choir begins soft and low, then climbs and builds, touching a number of keys along the way and illustrating the text God is my strength and my might; God has become my salvation. A simple refrain is provided for the congregation if used liturgically. Reproducible page for congregation included.
