About this arrangement

Orchestra SKU: IG.OMW204 Composed by Steven Liotta. Score and Parts. Imagine Music Publishing #OMW204. Published by Imagine Music Publishing (IG.OMW204). 9 x 12 in inches.My Faith is Larger than the Hills, was written in c.1862 by the American poet, Emily Dickinson. In this poem, the opening line is especially hymn-like. It declares a faith greater than the greatest natural phenomena. Hills and sun stand for eternity, yet her religious faith is larger than nature (the hills). Her faith is in the Purple Wheel - Jesus (the Sun/Son), and the poem continues on to describe her deep faith in Him.Dickinson ends by scolding herself because she dares to stint her faith in Christ, who holds everything together for her (The Rivet in the Bands).The final stanza in some sense maintains the hymn-like feel of the poem's opening.
