This setting of a well-known text by Trappist monk Thomas Merton (1915-1968) attempts to bring to life the Prayer of Trust. This text communicates the realization that although we cannot see the way ahead, we rest in the knowledge that we desire to be in the will of God. Therefore, we trust that God will walk with us daily, even through the valley of the shadow of death, and we will not be afraid. A powerful text for today and every day!

The beloved text attributed to St. Patrick is set imaginatively for SATB and organ. Mostly homophonic choral phrases have a harmonic interest and momentum that belie their difficulty level. They alternate with organ phrases that solo out the melody of the traditional Irish tune SLANE. Written for the installation of a new Létourneau organ, the piece is best served by creative registrations.

This timeless prayer of blessing is given a new treatment with subtle, attractive harmonies. There is some flexibility in presenting the piece, for example, a solo or small group could sing the soprano line, while the other parts are hummed underneath. In Palmer’s comments in the octavo, he offers guidance on executing the grace note figures sprinkled throughout.
