When people asked Jesus about the most important commandment, He summed it up as 'love your neighbor as yourself'. The age-old question that has always occupied philosophers is: 'why are we on this earth?'. The answer lies in Jesus' answer. This command is also woven into the artistic text of 'Uit vuur en ijzer' by Huub Oosterhuis; here arranged for choirs with musical arrangements for a chamber orchestra or smaller accompaniment. The folk melody that forms the basis has made this song beloved, while the artistic text appeals to the imagination.
