| Anselm of Canterbury (c. 1033 – 21 April 1109), a benedictine abbot and philosopher and theologian, left significant writings, some of great complexity. Others, like this simple prayer, convey a deep longing for a closeness to God.

| “If Ever There Is” is a setting of “John’s Song,” by American poet Robert Creeley (1926-2005).
