'The piece has been written for Edna Michell's Compassion project. In the composition I follow the idea of a dialogue suggested by the text I have chosen. The intimate nature and fragile soundworld of the duo mirror the fragility of our uncertain existence.' - Kaija SaariahoLight and darkness night and day.We marvel at the mystery ofthe stars.Moon and sky sand and sea.We marvel at the mystery of the sun.Twilight high noon dusk and dawn.Though we are mortal we are Creation’s crown.Flesh and bone steel and stone.We dwell in fragile temporary shelters.Grant steadfast love compassion grace.Sustain us Lord; our origin is dust.Splendor mercy majesty love endure.We are but little lower than the angels.Resplendent skies sunset sunrise.The grandeur of Creation lifts our lives.Evening darkness morning dawn.Renew our lives as You renew all time.
