This needful paean to prayer is embraced with lush, emotive music. Beginning in unison before opening to closely set harmonies, a beautiful theme drives home the warmth and assurance of this original lyric. Tender thoughts pervade and the music is unassuming before the text “Mountains can be moved, victories can be won as we pray in the name of Jesus” becomes urgent with conviction. An affirming yet devotional ending puts the Amen on this hopeful canticle.

Almost any choir could perform this nice piece with much unison/2-pt writing but plenty of good part-writing. Moving from the simplicity of the first section to more complex harmonies as the text warrants, both youth and adults will perform this piece expressively and effectively.
The Bottom Line
Pros
Very accessible with an expressive message about prayer
