Description: Double choir SATB a cappella. Ranges are comfortable throughout for all voice parts, and all lines are very singable.

English text
Consider the lilies of the field: how they grow.
They toil not, neither do they spin.
Consider the ravens.
No barns have they, for they neither sow nor reap.
Consider how they live.
Storehouses nor barns, no, neither have they.
God feedeth them.
Consider, and fear not little flock.
