Review:      Hal Hopson has painted a dramatic Lenten picture in his beautiful arrangement of this beloved spiritual, which incorporates "He Never Said a Mumblin' Word" and features a creative and unique use of readily accessible optional instruments. A few measures use multiple accidentals, and the piece transitions through several tempo changes. Measures total 81.
