This is a transpotion of Josquin's 2-voice imitative polyphonic motet set to a text that is suitable for Lent or Ascension. Its ranges fit perfectly for low and high equal voice choirs. Its simple phrases weave together creating a texture that seems much more rich than that of two voices. Perfect for small scholas.
This carefully researched, beautifully engraved, and optimally arranged score will save you hours of preparation and rehearsal time, and be a joy for your singers to use.I offer make it availble to you, so that you can spend less time at the computer and more time making music.
Thank you for supporting my work!

Translation
Hear, O Lord, my voice, with which I have cried to thee: have mercy on me and hear me.
Turn not away thy face from me; decline not in thy wrath from thy servant.
Be thou my helper, forsake me not; do not thou despise me, O God my Saviour.
Set me, O Lord, a law in thy way, and guide me in the right path, because of my enemies.
Expect the Lord, do manfully, and let thy heart take courage, and wait thou for the Lord.
