Renowned choral arranger Stacey V. Gibbs offers a vibrant a cappella setting of the beloved spiritual. Opening with a short and expressive solo, the piece quickly breaks into a rhythmic groove featuring lively African percussion with no-nonsense vocal harmonies. One Swahili phrase meaning "It's me, oh, Lord" punctuates the arrangement, which includes a soaring treble trio in the middle, and concludes with an optional mixed-voice descant. Highly recommended for concert, festival, or church use.
