Written for the ELCA's 25th Anniversary, the composer himself describes this as a one-rehearsal wonder. Essentially it's a brand new hymn tune and text arranged for SATB and piano, with optional trumpet and soprano descant. The tune is sweeping and majestic, the choral writing easy and effective. The tag line God's work, Our hands has been at the heart of the ELCA church since its inception, and the text reinforces that message. Duration 3:30.

In 1990, Ewazen wrote his Three Lyrics of Edna St. Vincent Millay for soprano Jody Dall'Armi with piano accompaniment. About ten years later, Ewazen created a version for trumpet and piano, and also for trumpet and marimba. Answering a commission by Cantabile Chamber Chorale in celebration of their 20th anniversary season, Ewazen set the first poem, God's World, for mixed chorus and piano. The text celebrates the wonder and beauty of our world, but with an understanding of the fleeting temporal passing inherent in each view. Ewazen's lush melodic lines are crafted to match.
