Composed for the state funeral of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II at Westminster Abbey, London, on 19 September 2022, “Like as the hart” is a setting of verses from Psalm 42 for four-part choir with occasional divisi. The words and music speak at first of the soul's great sadness and thirst for reassurance; but as the psalm progresses, the mood becomes calmer and more resolved, culminating in consolation, with the words “Put thy trust in God.”.
