Do any of you have a favorite part of Handel's Chandos Anthems?

I'm listening through for the first time and two parts that are exceptionally wonderful are:

One thing have I desired of the Lord and Let God arise

How about you all? I'm sure I will find a ton of new favorites as this is only my first time through.

"Let Thy Hand be Strengthened", HWV 259

This has always been my favorite of Handel's anthems. I remember hearing it as a very young child at my grandmother's house and later not being able to figure out what it was (probably no older than 5 the first time I heard it). It was years later when I finally discovered it and realized why I liked it so much.
