The chants, sung in English, have a descant in the original language from the three households of Abraham, Sarah and Hagar. The words are selections from the Quran, the Hebrew Scriptures and the Words of Jesus and are interwoven with prayers by John Philip Newell. The soloist and music director is Suzanne Butler who was featured on Newell's previous chant CD, Sounds of the Eternal.
The composer Linda Larkin is from Santa Fe; the spoken prayers are from John Philip's new book Praying with the Earth.
