Its a nice piece. I mean some nice chords, and i was kinda into it in the beginning, but I got bored like half way through. It was a very typical way to write for chorus which is not a problem, I think it was the fact that the harmonic language kinda stayed constant, I would've liked to see some new chords come out. I dont say you have to do CRAZY stuff, but something new than what you've already done. I mean the text is so great, i feel a lot more could be done with it. Rule number one with vocal music, don't set a text if you arnt going to add anything to it.
Score clean up is also needed, make sure you have whole rests and what not, and adjust the format of the score so the last page isnt one measure. I dont know how to fix this on finale.

Overall nice, its a good start as Matthew was saying. Keep working.

Scott.
