From the foreword by Liselotte J Andersson:

When I listened and read, I wandered in an unknown landscape, yet I feel at home. It is something that gives a good recognition. What is it? I think I hear an echo from the Psalms: The walk between darkness and light, testimony from an "I" and calls to a "you". Under and above everything there is an eternal "You".

That there is an echo from the Psalms is probably related to the fact that these songs were born in an environment of prayer where the Psalms form the very backbone. … These are songs for believers and seekers alike. The silence is a help to the seeker and it is between the lines.
