Thanks everybody for such great comments!

I used the dotted slurs in the chant section because it was to be chanted and not held out. Just one of the those things to keep it distinct.

I used the 2/4 bar with rests b/c I wanted a specific time of rest not just what you feel. It can still be slightly slowed or quickened but for the most part I wanted it to move at a certain yet uncertain pace.

I'm sorry about some of the things you may have felt regarding your beliefs, but I just went where my heart and the music told me too.

This is all very encouraging since I have only been composing for about a year and I've only been composing choral works for about half of that.

Thanks so much.

More comments are welcome.
