No Time Not to Love
Squarely facing the reality that "there are those who are trying to set fire to the world," the opening line of text is set as an unrelenting, multi-layered chant with overarching cries of "we are in danger." The work transforms into an lyrical anthem as singers then proclaim steadfast resolve in an increasingly troubled world. Additional violin and cello accompaniment is optional.

No Time Not to Love
Deena Metzger, Joan Szymko
There are those who are trying to set fire to the world,
we are in danger,
there is time only to work slowly, there is no time not to love. (Deena Metzger)
There is time only to love boldy
there is no time for fear,
no time not to love.
There are those who are trying to mend the world. (added verse, Szymko)
