A snowy evening

This, I understand, is the original version of Eric Whitacre's 'Sleep,' intended to be a setting of the Robert Frost Poem, 'Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening.'
The setting of the last lines is particularly effective, moving and poignant:
"But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep."
