Wider than the Sky is a short choral work for SATB choir and piano. It is based on a poem by Emily Dickinson.

Duration: 6:00

Instrumentation: Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass, Piano

The brain is wider than the sky,
For, put them side by side,
The one will include the other
With ease, and you besides.

The brain is deeper than the sea,
For, hold them, blue to blue,
The one will absorb the other,
As sponges, buckets do.

The brain is just the weight of God,
For, lift them, pound for pound,
And they will differ, if they do,
As syllable from sound.
