Peter Mayer took a song from the Unitarian hymnal by Rowland Pritchard, rearranged the melody, added lyrics that express his own earth-centered spirituality, and so gave it new life. This very expressive arrangement sung by Amy Broadbent brings out the feeling of being joyously at home in the natural universe.
@@jameslevy531, it's a beautiful performance. Considering it's live, I wouldn't worry too much about the balance in the recording! Well done, both of you!
This is soooo Wonderful and beautifully sung and accompanied too.. !!! Marvelous !!

And I'm proud to say Peter belongs to my congregation, White Bear Unitarian Universalist Church in Mahtomedi, Minnesota.

I am a Unitarian Universalist and must find the hymn Peter used for inspiration ...
Beautiful performance. Great singer. Great pianist, too. Who is he? I wish he received credit for this, as well.
Thanks, that's me playing a bit too loud. James Levy, music faculty GWU.
