The Welcoming Earth

"The Welcoming Earth" conveys the notion that even in death, there exists a serene and comforting state, distinct from the battles of mankind. Composed during a period of emotional unrest, the song is both beautiful and eerie, making significant use of the bass tones of the piano to emphasize a future relief from all our adversities. Lyrics: Venture forth, disheartened child, away from the wrathful corridors of human discord, and lay your hand on the rock. Clo
