The Door Standing Open Lyrics
The Door Standing Open derives its title from a Kabalistic phrase that implies the ever present possibility of resuming a dialogue with God. The four songs of this Prophetic cycle for medium or low voice and piano are settings of poems by Robert Mezey and of Mezey’s translations of the Hebrew poetry of Uri Zvi Greenberg. Each song explores a different mood or attitude in an ongoing personal conflict with God—not simply rage or frustration, but several stations in the rocky, passionate path through fate to faith.
