This mystical piece, which grows gradually from soft and penitent to rapturous, was written using techniques similar to those of Arvo Pärt and bears certain similarities to his music.
Text: Rabanus Maurus (c. 780-856), in Latin
English translation (excerpt): Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest, and in our hearts take up Thy rest; come with Thy grace and heavenly aid, to fill the hearts which Thou hast made.
