Faith Is

This sacred motet, Faith Is, is set for treble, alto, and tenor voices. The text, adapted from the writings of Thomas Merton, explores a profound understanding of faith, moving beyond rigid adherence to dogma. It describes faith as an opening of the inner eye to divine revelation, a joyous communion with God. The composer Gabrael StClair sets this contemplative text with music that encourages introspection and spiritual reflection, making it suitable for services or concerts focused on themes of belief and divine connection. The SAT voicing offers a rich yet accessible sound, allowing the message of faith's revelatory power to shine through.
