God Will Provide a Lamb; and a cantata finally finished
Last night was a landmark for me… I actually finished something. Something big. And complicated. And boy am I patting myself on the back!
Fun and Games, and a Missionary Choir
The incredible thing is that they had the music memorized. I know how long they didn’t have to learn this, so I’m well and truly impressed!
For the earth is the Lord’s…
Thanksgiving. And an arrangement of “This is My Father’s World.”
This is cool. :)

Friday Favorites #4
Here’s a new favorite that I think you’ll enjoy. We we just started this one in our Institute Choir. It’s a gorgeous number called “This Holy Christmas Night,”
It’s a good thing they recycle those youth themes… ;)
The new song this time supports this year’s youth theme:
“…stand ye in holy places and be not moved …”.
I love it when a plan comes together.
For as long as I have known Heather Prusse and James Loynes, I have wanted… longed… ached… to get their voices together on a song or two. Finally, with this latest new song, we managed it.

He knows the strength that grows in shadow when I’m reaching for the light.
Friday Favorites #3
One of my absolute favorite modern compositions: “Behold the Wounds in Jesus’ Hands” with text by John V. Pearson and Music by David R. Naylor.

When wildfires send you running for cover, it really *does* help to have people praying for you.
