What Light Do You Shine in the World?

This perfect little song is one of many Kate Munger has written for the Threshold Choir. Made up of 200 chapters worldwide, the choral singers of Threshold are called to sing, when invited, at the bedsides of people who are dying. Most of the 350 songs in their repertoire are written by Threshold Choir members.

Kate says, “I use this song with circles of singers (children and adults) to ask, ‘What light do YOU shine?’ It’s very evocative to hear humans talking about how they shine. And then, even richer when they hear the assent of others around them.”

The song lends itself to so many different harmonies. Sing and let the spirit guide you!
