Where

The angstiest song/section of the piece….

Alas! my
heart, where is thy absent God?

Arise and
search, nor languish hopeless here,
His sacred
word invites me to his feet.
The voice
of mercy, O be the heavenly accents spoke to me! 

God of my
life,
O speak and
give me comfort

(O let my
soul recall her comforts past)

–words from Anne Steele: ‘Desiring
the gracious presence of God’

…after this, after a Period Of Silence, it goes into the Psalm (below).
