Description:
Wings in the moment - these are song lyrics, cleverly composed and refreshingly light verses. The pastor and poet Friedrich Karl Barth wrote them over more than four decades - alone or together with his friend. His language is turned towards life. It is great poetry - for domestic use. In pain and death, it does not become quiet, paves wonderful paths for joy and points out of the resentment that would possibly never fade away if it were not for words like these. The lyrics are catchy without becoming banal. Because riddles, injustice and sadness are not denied. They enchant in a rebellious way, want to reconcile, bless and dance to the power of life. They are words that get under your skin. They are like bread that you put on your tongue without ever tiring of the taste. Anyone who reads, speaks or sings them can feel the power of wings - instantly. Barth's poetry bows before the deep foundation of life: God.
