Fragile and precious, this sacred tone poem is a prayer for peace and a plea for healing of the heart. The soundscape of the anthem rises from a single tone, opening to reveal glimmering splashes of choral color. As the words become more impassioned, the octavo surrenders to a flowing piano episode that matches its intensity. This petition for calm begins to quiet as the anthem winds down, allowing the prayer to end in hushed chords of assurance. Score and Parts (vn, vc) available as a digital download.

With poetry by e.e. cummings, the text is a tender plea of a lover asking for acceptance of the gift of love with all its mysteries, fantasies, dreams and yearnings. The music reflects these offerings in a lilting waltz-like tempo that floats toward its conclusion with hints of promised fulfillment, expansiveness and peace. Duration: ca. 2:00.

GIA is pleased to release an impassioned new recording from Jeanne Cotter. Tender Hearted is filled with songs that pour forth the message of God’s unconditional love. These songs tell the story of Christ’s heart of compassion and of his gentle yet untiring call for us to live as his disciples. Written for her three children, the title track “Tender Hearted†encourages us all to clothe ourselves “with kindness, patience, and humility†and to “live a life worthy of our calling.†The moving texts of “All Is Holy,†“The Way You Love Me,†and “In You, I Abide†remind us that we are called to be imitators of Christ—to build the kingdom through our acts of mercy, kindness, and compassion. The music of Tender Hearted is not just about our outward actions of grace and holiness toward others. It is also about the grace that God shows each of us daily. Songs like “Do Not Be Afraid,†“By Your Love,†and “ I’ll Walk by Your Side†are filled with encouraging words of hope and healing. Tender Hearted is quintessential Jeanne Cotter. When you listen, be prepared for your heart to swell with love, kindness, and peace.

CHRIS TMAS IS IN THE HEART, from the Simply Word creative team of Kenna Turner West, Dale Mathews, and Steve W. Mauldin, is a brand new musical for the Christmas season, both accessible and appealing to any choir! “For both the young and the young at heart, Christmas is truly a time like no other! Each year it offers us the opportunity to look deeper – beyond the stockings, the snowmen, and the tinsel – and it bids us to come and follow the star of Bethlehem as it leads us to the Light of the World. It invites us to bow our hearts as we draw near the manger to worship the newborn King. You see, Christmas is all around us...and the fullness of joy that we find in the presence of Jesus can be ours not just for a day in December, but every day of the year. The peace we find in Christ doesn’t fade when the season departs…not if Christmas is truly in the heart!< b>CHRISTMAS IS IN THE HEART captures the sights and sounds of Christmas that are all around us – the singing of carols, “decking the hall,†and the lighting of the Christmas tree! Featuring songs that take us back to the simple joys of childhood and share the timeless truths of that first Christmas night. CHRISTMAS IS IN THE HEART will bring the joys of Christmas alive in your hearts and in the halls of your church this Christmas season!

Prayer of the Heart was inspired by The Chain of Hope. This charitable organisation raises money for the treatment of heart disorders in children, including Marfan's Syndrome, of which John Tavener is a sufferer. Thesinger should sit on a low stool, bowing towards the heart. This facilitates the soul's concentration, and its unification in ecstasy. The Prayer of the Heart is prayed ceaselessly day and night, awake or sleeping, becauseit has become at one with the beating of the heart... Silence, peace, sweetness of union with God... The Prayer is not usually sounded with the voice at all - it is silent. Therefore the music must be played and sungintensely, quietly, with no physical effort. The Byzantine bell and large Tibetan temple bowl may be played by the singer. Prayer of the Heart should be sung in subdued lighting, perhaps by candlelight. The recording of theheartbeat should sound very tenderly and quietly throughout.

Sing for Peace is Marty Haugen’s first collection of liturgical music (apart from mass settings and The Lyric Psalter) in seven years. Sing for Peace is a wide-ranging and eclectic collection, including two settings of texts by Adam M. L. Tice, a setting of a text by Shirley Erena Murray, and a number of original texts and Scripture adaptations. Like much of Marty’s previous music the texts largely focus on Christian peace-making and issues of social justice, including hunger, immigration, and earth-keeping. There is music for baptism, for intercessory prayer, choral music and two children’s choir pieces. The styles range from classical to gospel to pop, with singers of all ages involved.  Contents: I Will Rise, Down in the River to Pray/Baptized into the Death of Christ, For Every Child, Sing with All the Children of Earth, The Steadfast Love of the Lord, Look and See the Face of Christ, An Open Hand, a Willing Heart, Bring Peace, Live Jesus, The Reign of God Is at Hand, Sing for Peace, Bread for the World, I Am a Child of This Planet, Rejoice in God!
