We Are Not Alone is a collection of hymns, psalms, and songs that is ideal for private prayer as well as a variety of group settings such as retreats, Bible study groups, and adult or youth formation events. It is especially appropriate for formation experiences for choirs, cantors, ensembles, and other ministers of music. These reflections provide an invitation to deepen the celebration of our connection to God and to one another through the celebrations of the Eucharist and observations of the Hours. It is intended for the public prayer of, and worship by, a singing and participating community. Let We Are Not Alone nurture you, both as members of a praying Church and in the faith that God never forgets or abandons us.

This CD makes a great gift for anyone in need of healing prayer. It is perfect for reflection in the different “sanctuaries” of our lives-places like the car, the office, or even amidst nature during a quiet walk or respite under a tree, a blanket of stars, or the sun-drenched sky. Reflect on one prayer everyday. Use them in prayer services, private devotions, public prayer, or small Christian communities. Author and composer Lawton reads each reflection himself; his gentle delivery and rich vocal timbre breathe compassion and life into these expressive words of inspiration and hope—lighting a pathway to peace and shepherding the soul toward rest.

A thousand ages in your sight, a line from Issac Watt's hymn paraphrase of Psalm 90, provides the inspiration for this celebration of hope with the St. Olaf Cantorei, under the direction of John Ferguson. This gorgeous live recording features impeccable choral singing and festive instrumentation, bringing life to tunes and texts from around the world. "Come, All You People," an African hymn, is full of exciting rhythms and beautiful harmonies. The celebration continues with the classic German chorale Lobe den Herren. Versions of "O God, Our Help in Ages Past," "All Creatures of Our God and King," and "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel" are just a sample of the many beautiful, innovative arrangements of traditional hymns by John Ferguson on this recording. Music and arrangements by William McKie, Alexander Gondo, William Byrd, Egil Hovland, Joseph W. Clokey, Mark Hayes, Ralph Vaughan Williams, and Edward Tyler are also featured. In the spirit of the new millennium, reflections on God and the passing of time are included, as well as a reading of the story of Creation from the Book of Genesis.

When tragic or troubling events change our lives forever, we are left wounded and weeping. We look for solace in any place we can find it. Marty Haugen has created a compilation of his music that can help guide us through those difficult times of grief. The result is an incredibly compassionate recording. During times of tragedy Turn My Heart seeks to fill the need for consolation through music and does so with tender care.

In this hectic world, oftentimes we forsake our prayer lives for the demanding pressures of day-to-day living. My Morning Prayer was conceived out of the desire to find alternate ways for people to spend time in prayer. Ideal for commuters, this 2-CD set contains 7 separate settings of morning prayer, one for each day of the week. Each service lasts for approximately 20 minutes and includes a morning hymn, two psalms with psalm prayers, a scripture passage, a canticle, intercessions, the Lord's Prayer, a concluding prayer, and a blessing. Not only is this prayer resource useful for those who pray during the solitude of their morning commute, this CD might also be used in small group settings or by anyone who finds it challenging to pray in a meaningful way on a regular basis. Just pop it in, pick a day, and pray! You will find many familiar titles, providing an opportunity to memorize the services after repeated use. The musical settings of the canticle, intercessions, Lord's Prayer, and blessing are repeated each day, while the hymns and psalms are unique to each day. Some of the authors and composers on this CD set include Michael Joncas, Michel Guimont, Ruth Duck, Liam Lawton, David Haas, Lynn Trapp, The Dameans, Joseph Gelineau, John Bell, Michael Mahler, and Taize.

Diverse choirs throughout the country are raising a joyful noise with the powerful anthems, spirituals, and gospel selections in GIA's African American Church Music Series, edited by James Abbington. Stop By, Lord includes 14 selections from this terrific series, recorded by a tremendous gospel choir under the direction of Dr. Abbington.

Fall on Your Knees is not simply the title of this re-released recording by Eric J. Sova; it is an entreaty challenging today's youth to walk a path of faith. The poignant lyrics of the songs, “His Life,” “Praise,” and “Nails That Pierced” strike at their stony hearts of youthful defiance, laying them open to the hope-filled love of Jesus Christ. Sova's rich baritone effortlessly transitions between the musical styles of this generation, resulting in a recording that truly speaks to the young people of this age.

An ecumenical, cross-cultural, and profound call for peace...A deep desire for justice in our world is one of the common themes shared by all people of faith and goodwill. We, the faith-filled, exhort a desire to be heard, understood, and protected by God. We look forward to a day when our world will know a harvest of peace. In the Days to Come, a new recording by Marty Haugen and Marc Anderson, includes Christian, Jewish, Islamic, and Buddhist texts coupled with music from North America, Central America, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. It is an interfaith project centered on peacemaking. The title song profoundly and eloquently expresses the desire for peace at the heart of Haugen's message—"On the day when we beat our swords to plowshares, on the day when we throw the spear no more, on the day when all nations will cast their weapons down, on the day when we turn away from war."

Few recordings have struck a chord as deep and profound as this heart-rendering, yet ultimately uplifting, CD. The Last Journey offers mourners a way to grieve, to search through the struggle before them, and to face their difficult situation with a renewed sense of hope in the Resurrection. This recording makes a suitable and touching gift for mourners. The inspiring sound of The Cathedral Singers with soloist Pamela Warrick-Smith makes this a truly unique and touching gift. Includes "Lord Our God, Receive Your Servant," sung as the final commendation at the funeral of Joseph Cardinal Bernardin.

Marty Haugen and Marc Anderson unite their talents in this new collection of songs grounded in faith-based earth keeping, replete with ethnic rhythms, singable melodies, and evocative lyrics. Each song text is filled with images of a rich and beautiful earth tended and respected by a harmonious people of God. A point of interest is the “green” packaging of this CD. It is an integral part of this project. A minimal amount of resources are used. There is no booklet or plastic jewel case—only a cardboard envelope. A PDF of the lyrics is embedded into the CD for download. Haugen and Anderson hope that those who hear this collection will be moved to work together to find a solution to the increasing environmental challenges we face. Let the music of Tree of Life inspire you toward better and wiser stewardship of our earth.
