The theme song for the 2007 L.A. Religious Education Congress. John's travels throughout the country presenting concerts, workshops, and parish missions keep him in touch with what Christian communities want to hear, sing, and witness. With his finger on the pulse of today’s liturgical and evangelizing music scene, he continues to write new songs that motivate his listeners’ response to God’s calling. This dynamic piece encompasses elements of pop, Latin music, and rap, all bound together with a refrain that immediately invites group singing.

Topic:	Creation; Glory of God; Joy; Light; Mission; Peace; Word of God
Sunday of the Year:	Lent 2 Year C; Lent 4 Year A; Ordinary Time 5 Year A

"...This would be a super choice for multicutural congregations, and is a great choice for almost any worship service. Your congregation will go out the door tapping their feet and humming this tune. Unless you are the faint of heart, buy this one now. For the more 'traditional' setting, it is easy to eliminate the rap section in the middle. Highly recommended." — Creator, September/October 2007
