“The Sun Will Shine Again”: A Covid 19 Musical Meditation

A musical meditation to address the isolation of COVID-19. Remember to breathe and stay in the moment if you can, as I am sending all my light out to you in hope and healing. 
 
Psalm 142:8 says Hotziah mi-masger nafshi l’hodot et shemekha. Bring my soul out of prison that I may give thanks to your name.
