Kyrie - Lewis Flinn - Performed by Susanna Phillips

I wrote this piece, “Kyrie”, back in the fall of 2014 and my dear friend, Susanna Phillips, recorded it. After I lost my mother on Christmas Eve of that year, Susanna graciously flew down to sing it at her funeral. She would perform it again at her mother-in-law’s, Patricia Huntington, memorial service several years later. 2020 has brought unimaginable losses for so many- losses of loved ones, losses of jobs, losses of dreams, losses of hope. The lyric, Kyrie Eleison (Lord have Mercy) resonates more than ever and I’d like to share the song, along with images from 2020, as a way to remember the year, and look forward with hope.
