What is the Beginning? (2002)

for Voice and Piano

Amy Scurria

Text by Christina Rossetti

What is the beginning? Love.
What the course? Love still.
What the goal? The goal is Love
On a happy hill.
Is there nothing then but Love?
Search we sky or earth
There is nothing out of Love
Hath perpetual worth;
All things flag but only Love,
All things fail and flee;
There is nothing left but Love
Worthy you and me.
