PEL2005 "Voices of Light" - Created for Chorus Angelicus, the acclaimed children's choir founded by Paul Halley and Meg Race in 1991, this work forms the title track on the recording, "Voices of Light" . A beautiful, musical manifestation of the phrase "God is light and in Him is no darkness", with ethereal harmonies and a dancing, intricate flute line. A luminous offering for treble or SATB choirs, with a sublime feature for a consummate flutist.

O blest creator source of light,
You gave the day with splendor bright,
When on the new and living earth,
You brought all things to glorious birth.

Lighten our eyes to see you,
Radiant with perfect love.
