…Lord, wilt thou plead for me? Lord, intercede for me…
Renowned Salvationist composer Wilfred Heaton has set a powerful text by Kenneth Tout to equally powerful music. Astringent harmonies and long, unresolved phrases perfectly capture the mood of urgent supplication in the poem. The King's Singers recorded this piece on the cd "The Quiet Heart", volume one of a trilogy of recordings of Salvation Army music.
