Lonnie Liston Smith arranged the piece, which closes Deaf Dumb Blind. Martin-McCormick wrote in Pitchfork that it is spiritual jazz of the highest order and ranks with Alice Coltrane's Prema and Albert Ayler's Our Prayer as a devotional masterpiece. Thom Jurek called it "a stunningly beautiful and contemplative work." Smith recorded it again as the second track of his 1973 debut, Astral Traveling.
