The Cross, the Christ
our stumbling block, our stone in the road
challenging our love of self
of the world, the polluted waters we drink
lost, wandering in the desert places
Our decision point, to live a little life
half a life, without a core, a soul
or to choose the living waters
the life-changing resurrection
dying with Christ
rising with Christ again
our choice, when we reach
that stone in the road

“Remembering Composer Leon Kirchner
The music world is mourning the death of Leon Kirchner, one of America’s greatest composers. Kirchner died yesterday at his home in New York, the cause was heart failure. We revisit a conversation that Robin Young had with Kirchner before he was honored at Boston’s Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum earlier this year.”
