Stars

By Joseph M. Martin

This is a significant composition from the composer of "The Awakening" and "Come To The Music." A challenge worth taking, this anthem with divided vocal sections utlizes a more through-composed approach, following the rise and fall of the inspiring text. Reaching for the stars on the journey of life and following the path of wisdom and integrity is the center of the message and with the final words, "we are children of the Light," the exclamation point is placed directly on the heart. Written for school usage, churches and seminaries may also find use for this choral piece in times that focus on educational concerts and ceremonies.
