Shadows & Light by Heather Houston
Honoring the shadows and light within and trusting that all things find their way into balance, these prayer songs are drawing upon the natural world, the elementals, our bodies and hearts to be our guides.
Most of the songs are easy to learn and share with your communities of singers. For the more difficult songs, sheet music will be available on my website by March 2025. Enjoy!

The songs that move through me into form arrive with multiple layers of harmonies, inviting us to sing together. Many of them are sung by communities across the globe, weaving themes of communion with the natural world, personal and collective healing, prayer, unity, and inspiration.
