While not exactly a full hymn concertato, there are definite places for the congregation to participate, first on the short concluding phrase, and then for the whole fourth verse. An extended organ and flute introduction undulates and shimmers, perfectly setting up the text by David Mowbray, which is a prayer for the creative powers of the Holy Spirit to inspire the arts of worship. The setting of Richard Proulx's melody uses approachable SATB writing, occasionally featuring the women's and men's voices alone in either unison or two parts.
