Peace Beyond Thought
Patrick Hawes.
This composition asks the listener to dwell on all that is pure. For this reason
the music develops from simple unison singing through to rich and warm
harmonic textures, with restrained dynamics throughout. Towards the end of
the work, the most important word is "console"; choirs should feel the phrases
moving towards the final D major chord which is intended to bring resolution
and comfort.

Psalm 150

Highly recommended!
