I work as the Music Director at a Unitarian Universalist Church where we use, as guidance for worship planning, monthly themes as opposed to a lectionary. Early in 2023, we had the monthly theme of "Finding Your Center," which challenged many of the worship leaders in finding specificity and direction in messages. For my part, I wanted to contribute a song that leaned into that theme to help guide worship. So I started with a song that imagined different types of people and that they could each, despite their different needs, might find what they need within themselves. What started as that song then blossomed into this choral piece, premiered by our church choir.
