Based on a pentatonic "Sacred Harp" tune, this piece affords several performance options beyond SATB. The introduction could allow a procession; a children's chorus could sing one of the verses; and a program insert could invite the audience to join in on one verse. Composed for a massed choir event, it is that rare piece that can serve this purpose well. The uplifting text advocates togetherness and thankfulness and speaks to all ages.
