new George Herbert songs
-
Written in 1983.
This lyric has been set many times already, and it's amazing how many ways there have been found to do it.

Thank you so much for this, Andrew!!
Of course, I am most familiar and partial to Ralph Vaughan-Williams' setting of this text for baritone voice in his Five Mystical Songs ... which I have sung many many times.
I shall try to play through this setting of yours or scan it into Finale and cook up a human playback performance to hear it more nearly properly. Have you thought about publishing it at CPDL? (I can help you with that)

Beautiful!
Worthy of the text and its author! -
