Everyone loves a Spiritual. This arrangement powerfully captures the determination to keep moving, to succeed, and to overcome; objectives that are so often expressed in Afro-American spirituals. The text mentions three biblical characters that overcame serious difficulties, but perhaps your choir members can name other over-comers that have personally inspired them. The choral writing has all of the texture and harmonic interest of an a cappella piece, but the colorful and supportive piano accompaniment makes it accessible for almost any choir.
