It begins with a seven-measure introduction of trumpetings followed by the main theme, which is regal in nature with syncopated rhythms which give the music its continual forward impetus. There are contrasting sections in mood and temperament - including a very lyrical passage for optional handchimes in a contrasting key and mood. The main theme returns as the work comes to a triumphal conclusion.

The piece utilizes changing moods, harmonizations, and styles to follow the Church (and all those who have ever met to worship) through the ages before a final verse in a sprightly 6/8 ushers us into the modern day and looks forward to all those who will worship in the future. A fitting choice for any worship or concert setting.

William Payn is recognized as one of the finest contemporary composers of handbell music. This is a classic William Payn piece and will be a welcomed addition to the handbell repertoire. The piece begins with a brisk eighth note pattern in both treble and bass bells and is followed by the introduction of a theme presented in the bass bells. The theme is developed and moves through three key changes before giving way to a peaceful middle section. Both themes are combined in the finale. A challenging piece well worth the work. For church or concert use. 5 octaves (58 bells).
