Short motet commissioned by St DominicÂ’s Sixth Form College, Harrow-on-the-Hill, UK, to celebrate its 40th anniversary. MacMillan chose a text which is entirely appropriate to young people about to be let loose on the world to fulfil their potential: 'Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire'. But where another composer might have made this a fanfare MacMillan writes with the gentleness of sincerity. The music is very straightforward and in wanting a solo soprano line he outlines all the ways this can be achieved: soloist, group of sopranos, or all the sopranos if the altos can be split into two. The choir repeats the mantra text above throughout the motet, while the soprano solo line is given the prayer which follows. Only at the very end do they all join together in the words 'Jesus, love, Jesus, love' with a lovely E major ending.

Following the success of the treble voice setting released last year is this new voicing. Though you bind it to the blowing wind and you buckle it to the moon, the night will slip away like a sorrow or a tune. The poetry of Eleanor Farjeon is so evocative, and Judith Herrington knows just how to set it for mixed voices to sing. This is a beautiful song for concert or festival use.
