Composed by Lucas Millker. Text: Lorica of Saint Patrick. Singable anthem with comfortable ranges. General. Octavo. Published by CanticaNOVA Publications (C5.5094).

The famous poem known as the Lorica (or Breast-Plate) of Saint Patrick, has as its last stanzas: "Christ be with me, Christ within in, Christ behind me and before me, Christ beside me and to win me, Christ to comfort and restore me, Christ beneath me and above me, Christ in quiet, Christ in danger, Christ in hearts of those that love me, Christ in mouth of friend and stranger. Amen" Lucas Miller has written a wonderfully singable, a cappella motet on this prayer, with comfortable ranges and beautiful vocal lines. This piece is perfect not only for the Irish parish (or the Irish pastor), but for any moment where trust and confidence in God is a theme.
