A bright concertato setting of this powerful Easter hymn. The piece begins with dialog between the brass and the choir, then immediately involves the congregation. The congregation sings in unison while the choir augments the singing with parts. A choral stanza, then a final stanza with congregation and descant serve as the conclusion to this very useful setting.

For the most part, this is a straightforward setting of the familiar nettleton hymn tune—the choirs sing some unison, the assembly sings along on some verses, and there is a descant, as well as an a cappella third verse. But the harmonies, particularly on that third verse, are refreshing. And the fanfare for trumpet, with a toccata-like organ accompaniment, provides a fitting beginning and end to the piece.
