A joyful, uplifting setting of Psalm 139. The organ part, with its sparkling use of high registers, subtly evokes the stars. This exquisitely complements the careful sculpted vocal lines. "Seek Him that maketh the seven stars and Orion and turneth the shadow of death into the morning. Alleluia, yea, the darkness shineth as the day, the night is light about me. Amen." Amos 5:8, Psalm 139.
