Theme: Pilgrimage

The Christian life has always been understood as a journey — a pilgrimage toward a city not built with hands, through terrain that is sometimes familiar and often unexpected. Songs of the pilgrim journey give voice to the sojourner's experience: the joy of the road traveled with companions, the weariness of the long way round, the surprising grace of rest along the way, and the horizon-fixed hope that the destination is worth every step. They connect contemporary worshipers to the great cloud of witnesses who walked the same road and found the same God faithful at every turning.
