The beautiful hymn-tune MERLES TUNE by Hal Hopson is matched here with a paraphrase of Psalm 84 to create a soothing, pastoral choral anthem. Solid yet expressive part writing for all parts. A soaring soprano descant appears on the last stanza, with optional congregation. For general use or for The Presentation of our Lord. Choral Score includes a reproducible page for congregation.
