    Hello all! Here is the first draft of a motet. Right now, it's chant for verses 1, 3, and 5, and then two identical SATB settings of verses 2 and 4. I think someday I'd like to expand it - and custom-write something for the second SATB section instead of just reusing the music. But as it stands it can work. MIDI audio realization also attached.

    If any of the text setting is awkward, it's because I originally composed the SATB section with verse 1 in mind, and then decided to switch to putting SATB for verse 2 instead. Will probably revisit in the future!

    Alto is the cantus firmus except for a small section where the soprano takes it over.
