This song speaks to what it means for the Kingdom of God to be on earth. It speaks of the changes that occur inside of us which lead to changes in the world as a whole. My favorite verse is the following:
Though I am small, my God, my all,
you work great things in me,
And your mercy will last from the depths of the past
to the end of the age to be.
Your very name puts the proud to shame,
and to those who would for you yearn,
You will show your might, put the strong to flight,
for the world is about to turn.
We so often think of ourselves as not powerful enough to really change the world, but it is not us, but the one that works within us that has the power to change everything, to upend the status quo and make all things new. Canticle of The Turning, written by Rory Cooney, performed by Gary Daigle, Rory Cooney, and Theresa Donohoo.
