The Soul Contemplates the Creator In the Creation, the third piece in "Three Songs of the Soul", sets an English translation of a poem by metaphysical Dutch poet Jan Luyken (1649–1712). Through text painting, this sacred choral work strives to reflect the meaning and beauty of the poet’s spiritual ideals: here, he delights in the beauty of nature here on earth, and eagerly anticipates the ineffable beauty of Paradise. Within the lightly extended tonal and modal harmonies and the expanding and contracting progressions and modulations, each voice part has its own lyrical life.
