Recorded live on May 3, 2015, at All Saints Episcopal Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Performed by The Concert Choir ensemble of The Girl Choir of South Florida. Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson, Accompanist: Gayle Giese.
No coward Soul is mine,
No trembler in The world's storm-troubled sphere
I see Heaven's glories shine
And Faith shines equal, arming me from Fear
O God within my breast
Almighty, ever-present Deity
Life that in me has rest
As I, Undying Life, have power in Thee
With wide-embracing love
Thy spirit animates eternal years
Pervades and broods above,
Changes, sustains, dissolves, creates and rears
Though Earth and Man were gone
And suns and universes ceased to be
And Thou wert left alone,
Every existence would exist in Thee less

I
In a garden shady this holy lady
With reverent cadence and subtle psalm,
Like a black swan as death came on
Poured forth her song in perfect calm:
And by ocean's margin this innocent virgin
Constructed an organ to enlarge her prayer,
And notes tremendous from her great engine
Thundered out on The Roman air.
Blonde Aphrodite rose up excited,
Moved to delight by The melody,
White as an orchid she rode quite naked
In an oyster shell on top of The ... less

TEXT:
One dark night,
fired with love’s urgent longings
—ah, The sheer grace!—
I went out unseen,
my house being now all stilled.
In darkness, and secure,
by The secret ladder, disguised,
—ah, The sheer grace!—
in darkness and concealment,
my house being now all stilled.
On that glad night, in secret,
for no one saw me,
nor did I look at anything,
with no oTher light or guide
than The one that burned in my heart.
- St. John of The Cross (1542-1592)
ABOUT The WORK:

The text, three stanzas from St. John of The Cross’ magical poem Dark Night of The Soul, was suggested to me by Joel Rinsema, Executive Director of The Phoenix Chorale, and I fell in love with its passio... less
