Indeed, it has been said that the one who sings ‘prays twice’! Thus, our chosen hymns are: Come, let us use the grace divine - Father, hear the prayer we offer It passeth knowledge Jesus, where’er thy people meet - Lord of all hopefulness, Lord of all joy Lord, speak to me, that I may speak Make me a channel of your peace - Master, speak! Thy servant heareth Prayer is the soul’s sincere desire Shepherd divine, our wants relieve - Spirit divine, attend our prayers What a friend we have in Jesus and they were written by: William Cowper; Frances Ridley Havergal; James Montgomery; Joyce Placzek (Jan Struther); Andrew Reed; Joseph Medlicott Scriven; Mary Shekleton; Sebastian Temple; Charles Wesley; Love Maria Willis The complimentary CD accompanying this volume was recorded at St. Patrick’s Church, Patterdale in Cumbria with Mike Town at the organ. Mike has taught Geography, Economics, Music and Martial Arts at Eton College, near Windsor since 1973. |
