Description

For SATB Choir. This beautiful setting of verses from Psalm 37 will find frequent use when services are being planned and you need that one, short, perfect anthem. The text is usable for almost any occasion and the part writing is such that most any choir will be able to put this together in short order. This is an eminently useful addition to the repertoire and will be a welcome addition to any choir's library.

Psalm 37:34, Psalm 39:4

Lyrics

Wait for the Lord and keep to his way.
The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord;
He is their refuge in time of trouble.
Take delight in the Lord
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
