Lyrics
If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.

Very pretty, David. I like those added seconds; interesting intervals and melodic harmony choices. Quite the modulation! I don't recall you posting vocal pieces (although it's been a while) - tasty stuff. You should write more vocal music! 
BTW, Your last name changed... 'Finzi'... relation to Gerald?

Thanks all. RE: name addition. My grandfather Eduardo Finzi was from Italy. He and his father were also both remarkable artists... and with the bits of family history I've found, it's almost certain that Gerald is part of my family tree. So, to honor my mom and my history and to create a more distinctive moniker, I've adopted the name as part of my musical identity. :)I've loved choral music for a long time, and I'm working to expand my work in this direction. I'll add a couple more that have been recorded soon. :)

Ah, the voice - best instrument ever.  Beautiful arrangement you made.  Takes a confident and solid singer to sing those kind of harmonies and he did a great job.
