My Heart for Thee (A Sufi Song)

Description

Paul David Thomas’s My Heart for Thee, set to a Sufi-inspired text by Ameen Rihani, reflects the mystical tradition in which the heart symbolizes devotion, openness, and the soul’s longing for connection. Through images of fields, homes, pearls, and “magic things,” the poem offers the heart fully and without reservation. Thomas’s gently moving piano writing adds life and momentum, creating a lyrical and expressive SSA piece that feels intimate and meaningful.
