A dramatic crescendo into a brilliant fanfare opens this resonant, inspiring setting. Antiphonal phrases between bells and chimes adds a unique tonal color. The hymn statement also pairs bells and chimes for interesting sonorities in a very effective arrangement. Begins and ends in the key of C major, with the middle section modulating to F Major. 72 measures.
