Footsteps (from Finding Light) by Matthew Lyon Hazzard, UCLA Chorale
When I was a child,
I hid in the inky blackness of a wool blanket.
As my eyes adjusted,
I saw pinpricks of light through the threads.
Later, I saw
dark times, thoughts, futures.
I remembered the blanket and knew:
You don’t have to see the light to know it’s there.
At the mouth of the cave,
Don’t turn away.
Enter.
Step by step.
Isn’t love a kind of action?
Even if powerless to stop things from happening,
These footprints are happening.
***
Text by Emily Becker, Matthew Lyon Hazzard, & Sophia Mautz, compiled and arranged by the composer.

    As a student who sang this and the other SATB songs such as No Time at the 2024 HS Honor Choir as Tenor 1, I enjoyed the experience, and it was truly an honor being there meeting new people. I'd like to thank you, Dr. Talberg, for this true masterpiece that you have made, and I have had the song stuck in my head ever since. Thank you for giving these wonderful songs including this one. Even though those memories were just three days they felt like a week and Traveler's Hymn always bring tears to my eyes. Thank you Dr. Talberg for the opportunity of singing this piece with many other people.

    Hi Matthew. It was thrilling to have you zoom into Lehigh Valley Chorale's rehearsal last night (I am the blue haired alto you pointed out). Your encouragement and suggestions to LVC will be taken to heart, and I know we will do an amazing job at our concert. And of course your reference to SpongeBob had all of us laughing. And finally I have to tell you, in referring to the beginning and ending of the song and the sounds of the train, you are talking to a retired New York City subway train operator!! PS...I am your newest fan!!
