Choral Piece of the Day, Installment 32: In the Shadow of Your Wings: Composed in 2009, In the Shadow of Your Wings is a setting of Psalm 63, vs. 1–7 scored for SATB Chorus unaccompanied.
O God, you are my God; at first light will I seek you:
my soul thirsts for you in a dry and thirsty land where no water is;
To see your power and your glory, as I have seen you in the sanctuary.
Because your loving-kindness is better than life, my lips will praise you.
Thus will I bless you while I live: I will lift up my hands in your name.
My soul shall be satisfied, and my mouth shall praise you with joyful lips,
When I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the night.
Because you have been my help, therefore in the shadow of your wings will I rejoice.
