Sally Ann
Morris and Adam Tice
began working together in
2008, when Sally was
asked to compose a few
tunes for Adam’s
first collection, Woven
into Harmony. This
initial collaboration was
the beginning of what has
become a dynamic
partnership. In this
symbiotic pairing new
inspiration emerged,
generating contemporary
but timeless music where
text and tune seamlessly
unite.
    The a
cappella choral writing
on “Will You Hold
Me in the Lightâ€
and “This Is My
Body†is so lush
and intricate that
accompaniment is not
necessary, while the
poetry of “God Give
Me Faith like a
Child†and
“Breath of God,
Breath of Peaceâ€
illustrates the innocence
and fearlessness
essential in our love and
trust of God.
Stylistically ranging
from a cappella choral to
Latin jazz, each piece
offers a musical and
textual sophistication
that powerfully conveys
themes of journey and
longing for God’s
guidance.
