for SATB voices and orchestraThis six-movement work celebrates the themes of peace and unity to produce music of beauty, power, compassion, and great poignancy. The choral writing contains semi-chorus and solo voices from within the choir, but no separate soloists are needed.Orchestral material is available on hire.

"It is a mellifluent and gentle setting of the well-known prayer of St Francis and is at once accessible and agreeable." - Organists' Review May 2002
"This is one of the best new pieces of modern music I have seen for some time and I can strongly recommend obtaining a copy." - Ensemble Sept 2000 (MMA)
