text adapted from Romans 14:8-9

Augsburg Fortress, 9781506479842

This brief, graceful motet based on Romans 14 works best as a choral benediction; the multifold Amen coda could also be sung following intercessory prayers. Thematically appropriate for All Saints Sunday and throughout the Easter season.

Commissioned by the family of the Reverend Mary Gene Boteler, to honor her ministry and celebrate the occasion of her sixty-fifth birthday.
