Benediction (May the Flame...)
mixed chorus, piano (or organ)  (2000)  2'
lyrics by Max Coots

published by G. Schirmer Inc.

  • commissioned by Charlotte Ramsay for the Unitarian-Universalist Church of Canton, NY
A short lyrical piece, originally written for a church choir.  It's spiritual without being specifically religious, so it's also suitable for concert use.  It is simple (diatonic), and is voiced to sound full with even a small chorus.
