My Shepherd Will Supply My Need
Robert Edward Smith
• giving the affect of an a cappella beginning, the organ pedal
point gives subtle support to the unison choir
• harmony added in the organ first and then in the choir, leading
to the climax of the first verse, He brings my wandering
spirit back.
• central verse about the shades of death is set in the minor,
with vocal parts in a low range and minor seventh chords adding
harmonic color in the accompaniment
• returning to the major key and the dynamic highpoint of the
anthem, the final verse then concludes with the opening pedal
point, a solo organ line on the flute celeste and the choir singing
on one pitch, a child at home
