Over the High Holidays, PAS released Be the Light, an album celebrating the Jewish and Christian faiths coming together as one. This song from Be the Light explores the idea of presence: “When I’m lost, deeper than I’ve known / You’ll be the one I call home.” As you listen to this song, you might reflect on who has been a “home” for you, whether physically removed from familiar surroundings, or just in a challenging time.
