It's nice to encounter a hymn in this contemporary style that  has
a nice, Christocentric text.
 
I like the barbershop quartet version better than the female 
singer with all the accompaniment.  
 
I wonder how a non-professional congregation would do with
this hymn?
 
And I must confess the hymn (really anything!) suffers in contrast to what 
is surely one of the greatest motets of the past century, the Morten  
Lauridsen
"O Magnum Mysterium."  Here it is sung by the Winchester
Cathedral Choir in their stalls in the great choir (architectural) of
the Church.
 
Thanks for this!
