Description:

The entire story of Christ’s passion is told in this anthem—the fateful night, the bitter scene, the Body broken—it’s all there. Even though betrayed, Christ spoke words of love, reminded us of his broken body, and told us that we would celebrate this event while waiting for the marriage supper that will take place when he returns. The music portrays the powerful forces working against him, but also reminds us of his coming again in glory.
