“Sing out loud to the rock of our salvation!” Psalm 95, the lectionary psalm for this week, begins with such joyful praise that it cries out to be sung with abandon. Here’s a jubilant, reggae-flavoured song from our last album, This is the Day, which will help you get in the spirit of the psalm. So crank up the volume and play our mp3 recording, and sing along!
Second Sunday in Lent, Year A
Two songs from our collection to help you sing and dance the scriptures this week:
- Psalm 121:1-2: “I lift my eyes” (pdf and midi) – a three-part round with a joyful feel

First Sunday in Lent, Year A
Two shorter songs to help you sing your way into the scriptures on the first Sunday of Lent, Year A:

Eighth Sunday after The Epiphany, Year A
“My soul rests in stillness and quiet.” I’m still not sure if this is a statement or a prayer that it be so (the fact I’m wondering suggests the latter!), but these words from Psalm 131 echo through the ages. We have two songs for you to download and share this week:
- Psalm 131:2a: “My Soul Rests” (pdf and bulletin graphic) – a simple refrain for the psalm or a meditative chant for centering and prayer.
- Matthew 6:33: “Seek First” (pdf) – a rousing, counter-cultural call to focus on that which is truly important in life.
Two songs for the Sixth Sunday after The Epiphany, Year A
Two songs this week for you to share and enjoy on your own and with your community – a refrain for Psalm 119, and a rhythmic chant from our album, Like a Healing Stream:
- Psalm 119:40: “How I long for your Ways” (pdf and bulletin graphic) – a great new refrain, with good positive energy and a sense of longing.
- 1 Corinthians 3:16: “Make me your temple (pdf, bulletin graphic and mp3) – a song for healing, reflection, and to channel the presence of Spirit in your life. Enjoy the mp3, and chant along!
