“Roll the Tide” – a short SATB, a cappella quasi-spiritual

Roll the Tide is a roughly 3-minute a cappella piece for SATB chorus, based on a poem by Elisabeth Eliassen.  It is suitable for choruses of any size.  It has a few tricky spots, but well-trained high school and college choruses should do a lovely job with it, as would many community choruses.
