Finally Finished
Tuesday, March 11, 2008
Well, it's been years in coming, but I finally finished this illumination. I think I wrote the music back in 2003, and talked to my friend Medb at Estrella War about illuminating it for me. Well, Medb has her own mountain of projects to work on, so that never happened. But when I was in Oregon, I started working on the manuscript. Then with moving and general life upheaval, it got put away for a long time, and I just recently took it out again and finished it up. I'm rather pleased with the results. This weekend I have plans to make a recording of the plainchant, so check back next week to hear the music! 
I will sing of Your strength;
in the morning I will sing of Your love,
in the morning I will sing of Your love,
for You are my fortress,
my refuge in times of trouble.
my refuge in times of trouble.
O My Strength, I sing praises to You,
for You, O God, are my defense,
my loving God,
my God of mercy.
for You, O God, are my defense,
my loving God,
my God of mercy.
— Psalm 59:16-17
