“To You” has been used various ways as a stand-alone, and the two pieces together, with a space of silence between them, serve as a setting of the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer’s Collect for Purity. Used together these are very effective for a contemplative gathering, as “To You” can be sung repeatedly while people enter and join the song, silence deepens presence once they’re seated, and “Cleanse the Thoughts” finishes the piece and leads nicely to confession and/or prayer before reading scripture. Included are mp3's of each song separately, as well as an mp3 talking through use of the two songs together.
