Just one more thing about the voicing. In the last measure you have the second tenors singing lower than the basses. There's no reason why that should be, in my opinion. I would have the tenors sing the D and the F and the baritone and bass sing the B and the A. The D sharp when the key is in B flat. Voicings are just weird

In a couple of places - like the tenors in m. 16 - you have a note that doesn't fill the measure but no rests following it, like a dotted half note in 4/4 time with no quarter rest.

That doesn't effect much and is really just for cleanliness sake and to make it less confusing, but there it is.

In m. 25, in the alto part, you have the singers sing the second syllable of a word but not the first. This isn't really breaking any rules but it's generally good to have singers sing complete words and or phrases.

m. 31-34 in the tenor part, you have the lyrics above the staff...why?

m. 38 the soprano drops below the alto

Whenever a syllable is sung on more than one note, like in m. 43 the tenors, you need to put a slur connecting those notes. M. 43 is not the only place you didn't do this

m. 47 in the alto part, those 32nd notes may work better as grace notes, but that may or may not work with what you ha din mind. Just a suggestion.

I quite like the chord progression in 48-49

m. 64, in the bass part, the third note you have "lovelove" as the lyric there - was that intentional?

altos in m. 65 have "LOve" - again, was this intentional?

m. 76 you have "Lon ging" which should probably be "Long-ing"

Also in m. 76 the altos go above the sopranos

reiterating that the last measure's bass/tenor part needs fixing.
