Fourth Water - Soaring

Teresa's Four Waters in Song is a musical meditation on St. Teresa of Avila's (1515-1582) teaching and experience of prayer, which she likens to four ways of watering a garden. Soaring is the fourth in a series of 4 songs which reflects the dynamic progression of Teresa's own response to God in music. This 'Water' describes the prayer of union in which no separation exists between the rain and the river. "All the soul does is taste, without any work, and experiences God as indescribably close, dwelling within its center." Soaring draws upon the scriptural text of the Song of Songs to describe this experience of union.
