Light in Our Darkness is a collection of chants and psalms. All the music is underpinned by prayers of gratitude, of praise, of repentance and reconciliation. Margaret Rizza composes hauntingly beautiful melodies and is now recognised around the world as an icon of all that is holy and best in Christian composition. Her music is wonderfully melodic, often with simple, repetitive melodies carrying short, usually scriptural texts.
