The third verse of "In Holy Conversation" begins: "As holy conversation, / In silence or by word, / In ev'ry situation / Through Jesus, we are heard." The line "In ev'ry situation" is sung to this phrase, from the tune "Bred dina vida vingar":
"Situation" is sung with a melisma (D E C B D G), musically giving a sense of the breadth of that "ev'ry."
