[MUSIC]
Anna Martin: From The New York Times,
I'm Anna Martin.
This is Modern Love.
Growing up, I went to church a lot,
and my life was filled with Christian worship music —
on the car radio,
sleepaway camp,
at the young adult services at church.
The lyrics were about the mystery of the universe,
all the grains of sand on the beach,
these unknowable infinite things made manageable and catchy.
Archived Recording (michael W. Smith): You are holy.
You are holy.
You are mighty.
You are mighty.
Anna Martin: I echoed the worship leader in a call and response,
swaying, eyes closed.
I knew all the lyrics by heart.
Even if I didn't have any answers,
