Here is my best candidate (until I can speak to my friend):

Theodore Dubois, “The Seven Last Words of Jesus Christ” [Latin, 1867; English, 1899].

The opening solo is for soprano, and appears to match your description.

If you go to either of the below sites, then you should find a detailed delineation of the piece:
