about

Based on Romans 16.1-2 and imagining what might have been Phoebe's experience in delivering the letter from Paul to the church in Rome, and the likely experience of taking (and answering) questions of one of the most influential letters in the New Testament. Did she know the weight of what she carried, and how it would impact all of history?

lyrics

Sunshine and salt on my face
Windswept wave, and so much at stake
All eyes follow my wake
All question why I’m running this race

Only a letter to read, all of those questions to me
All of the ways I could stumble and Fall on my knees

And the wonder of it all you put your word into the hands of this girl
And I wander thru the seas and wonder how all this history unfurls
And with every passing mile you know the weight of the world

Long times I would see fire
Lost child and lovers who die
Your word came and gave light
Your face shines in the night

Only a letter to read, all of those questions to me
All of the ways I could stumble and Fall on my knees

And the wonder of it all you put your word into the hands of this girl
And I wander thru the seas and wonder how all this history unfurls
And with every passing mile you know the weight of the world

Pillars of fire weave thru all of my dreams
Walking alone and yet you’re leading me
How then should I speak, feeling so weak?

And the wonder of it all you put your word into the hands of this girl
And I wander thru the seas and wonder how all this history unfurls
And with every passing mile you know the weight of the world
