I both began and continue writing and recording 'pilgrim songs' due to the encouragement, help and guidance of certain dear friends within the Orthodox Christian Church.
Set in a folky musical style, I try to use words which are relevant and consoling in our sorrowful times, and also 'traditional', in the sense that they correspond with the collective experience of the Church through the centuries.
Glory to God for everything. +

The Cave Serves as Heaven
Music written, recorded, mixed by Emma Hetherington
Words based predominantly on the sermon from Fr. Ilarion (born with the surname Prikhodko) entitled "Sermon on the Sunday of the Nativity of Christ" p.81 of the book "Beacon of Hope: The Teaching of Father Ilarion".
Phrase 1, 2, and 4 in the first chorus (and repeated in the third chorus) are from St. Gregory the Theologian, as quoted in Fr. Ilarion's sermon.
Some small phrases taken from the Katavasias of the Nativity (Orthodox Christian tradition)
The final verse you will recognise from the carol "In the Bleak Midwinter", originally a poem of the same name written by Christina Rossetti in 1872.

Awesome. just awesome
what a song, I always cry from heart when hearing it
Your songs are beautiful. Like flowers that shine in the sunlight and a river that carries clean water over the beautiful earth.
your songs speak to me of the old. Be blessed and endure, beloved sister. Jesus Christ, the word became flesh, the Lord is love, the Lord will restore, the Lord Jesus declares about himself: Proverbs 8, 22-32 22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. 23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. 24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water. 25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth: 26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world. 27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth: 28 When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep: 29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth: 30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him; 31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men. 32 Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways. and this is for you my sitster, the little light, may it will be a comfort for your soul as your songs are for others.

I listen to this song often and I can but only marvel, time and time again, at how it musically renders what the holy fathers wrote in their books regarding one’s life long spiritual struggle. Every time, more layers of understanding are unveiled. Every time, a memory of my own journey is brought forth to mind and thus, a deep sense of gratitude 🙏 for God’s providence in everything.
