Ruach Breath Of Life

I wrote this prayer piece after taking a walk around our immediate neighbourhood one day. It takes the form of a prayer dialogue, imagining the Lord speaking to me about some of the people I glimpsed in passing. I have set the words to a piece I wrote called Lament and Light, which incorporates a beautiful Swedish folk melody. It concludes with Linda Entwistle singing a hauntingly beautiful theme in the Spirit, which leaves a profound aftertaste. A huge thank you to Rebecca Whettam and Natalie Halliday, cellos, Peter Richards, piano, and Mike Halliday on clarinet.
