This motet was written, when I was only 15 for the choir of Saint Paul the Apostle Church End, (Finchley, North London), with whom I had been singing from an early age. At the time I was deputizing for the church organist W.H. Griggs, and the motet was first performed after Evensong one Sunday in1951. The work has undergone a couple of revisions since then. The text, a prayer, is by Bishop Heber (1783-1826). My wife, Birthe, added a Danish text in 2009. Timothy Baxter
