Publisher's Synopsis
A comprehensive worship supplement that will fit many churches'
needs for quality modern music resources, arranged seasonally and
thematically
The 330 hymns and songs included represent many influential writers and styles including selections from Bernadette Farrell, John Bell, Stuart Townsend, Michael Forster, Graham Kendrick, Carl Daw, Taizé, Marty Haugen, Timothy Dudley-Smith, Shirley Erena-Murray, Keith Getty, Martin Leckebusch and many more.
Designed to help churches broaden their repertoire substantially
without the cost of replacing standard hymn books.
Many standard hymn books in use today may seem old-fashioned, even
those recently published. Keeping up to date is tricky since many new
compositions may enjoy a brief spell of popularity, only to quickly drop
out of use altogether!
Here, an experienced team of UK church musicians and liturgists,
representing a wide variety of tastes, has selected the very best of
recently written hymns, songs and short chant compositions. Many of
these selections have proven staying power and are widely used in both
traditional and informal styles of worship, but often will not be found in
other hymn books.
A new ecumenical resource, available in the US only from Church
Publishing.
The Melody Edition includes words and is the pew edition meant to be used by congreations. Also available is the Full Music Edition for the organist and choir and a Words Edition for gift giving
