Word of God, Creation's Voice

David Cottrell

Starting from John 1, this song explores how the Word of God was present at creation and through Jesus, is available through his Spirit to help us live for him, and will be there in judgment at the end of time. A simple song for the Whole of Life, or for Advent (verses 1,2 and 4).

Do You Think You Can Dance and Worship?

David Kai

Something completely new for this songwriter; a Contemporary Christian dance song promoting dance/movement/liturgical dance in worship through the example of three biblical characters. The song might be used with a "young-at-heart" group or in services focusing on dance and movement.

Holy

Ken Spence

Started with a riff and a chorus and then built around that. This dates back to my time at Worship Academy with Chris Bowater. A nice upbeat worship song.

You Are a Generous God

David Kai

This song is based primarily on Psalm 8 and might be used as an offertory song in worship or when there a focus on God's creation. I would describe the style as Contemporary Christian with a Celtic influence, although there's an 80's vibe in there somewhere! This song was written as a part of Resound Worship's 12 Song Challenge.

When I, in wonder

Donald Carvel

The hymn, 'When I survey the wondrous cross' is one of the best, deepest and most poetic lyrics ever written. Even over 300 years after it was written it is still being sung, more or less as Isaac Watts wrote it in 1707. So, why would anyone need to re-write or paraphrase it, and set it to a new tune, for a modern congregation? It's a fair question. But it still didn't stop me ...

Kids' Creed

John Grummitt, Sue Crossman

Resound Worship’s 12 Song Challenge this month was to take inspiration from the great creeds of the church. I was at the annual Resound Worship Songwriters’ Retreat at Wydale Hall in Yorkshire, UK so had plenty of time to reflection, and I took inspiration from the Nicene Creed. Pairing up with the very talented Sue Crossman of Hopestream Worship, we came up with this. Each verse focusses on expanding, in language simple enough for children, each person of the Trinity. Since writing it, we’ve used it regularly in our Sunday School and family services and it’s a hit with young and old alike.

Who is this man?
