I Call, O Lord, on You

Nichlas Schaal, James Quinn, SJ

As noted by the composer, careful attention to pacing and dynamic shape is essential to this piece. The introductory duet between the piano and solo instrument sets a somber, contemplative tone. The five verses, which the composer suggests may be sung by a soloist or unison voices, convey a sense of personal prayer and longing; the full SATB harmonies of the refrain emphasize the heartfelt, collective hope for Christ’s mercy.
