Lyrics: Walt Whitman
Music: Michael John Trotta
Format: Choral Octavo
Voicing: SSATB a cappella
This unaccompanied work contrasts a simple unison motif with quick ostinato in the lower voices. The homophonic refrain clearly declaims, "all forces have been steadily employed to complete and delight me". After building to a high point with a soaring descant for soprano, the work recedes in intensity with a harmonic restatement of the opening motif. Part of four Whitman settings, This Is Thy Hour.
