This motet, from William Beckstrands Requiem, is well suited for All Saints Sunday as an ending to a concert or worship service. The compositions haunting final passage is intended to be repeated continuously in a recessional, the music fading as if to the heavens.

Revelation 14:13. Voicing spilt: SSATBB.
