Inspired by the beloved text of Ecclesiastes, one of the "Wisdom" books of the Old Testament, this passage touches on the cycle of life and the proper time for everything. It is a text appropriate at times of loss, disaster and grief, but also one that reminds us of the importance of love and peace. As we've come to expect from Kendzia, this touching and inspirational anthemic song for choir and assembly builds effectively with a key change in the bridge which then modulates back to a moving final refrain. Set for SATB choir, piano, guitar, and two solo instruments in C, it works well sung very simply, or with the full arrangement, making it a versatile addition to any parish repertoire.
