Gathered, Scattered
Price range: $0.00 through $10.00 Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product page[embed]https://gregscheer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/gathered_scattered-final2.mp3[/embed]During the COVID-19 quarantine, we all learned how much we cherished gathering for worship. We especially felt the absence of gathering around the communion table–the one thing that can’t be moved to an online forum.
And yet, the Body of Christ has always been both gathered and scattered. We are scattered all over the globe and too often fractured by disagreements, but we also know a common bond in Christ that transcends all boundaries–the mystical “communion of saints.” This is a song of communion and unity that looks forward to the time when people from every tribe, language, people, and nation will gather as one at the throne of God.
If you’re holding online services, feel free to play the video or sing along to the lyric video.
PowerPoint slides for congregational singing are available from Digital Songs & Hymns.

GESCHICHTE
https://musicblog.gregscheer.com/geschichte.mp3
I wrote this tune for a text by my friend David Landegent: “Sufferings of Jesus” is based on 2 Cor. 1:3-11. He wrote it with the tune ASSURANCE (Blessed Assurance) in mind, but I felt that tune was too sprightly to encompass the themes of suffering and consolation found in his text.
This is an orphan tune, waiting to be adopted by a text to call its own. If you write lyrics for this melody or pair it with an existing text, please report its use to CCLI or OneLicense and let me know how you’ve used it.

GILLIGAN
[audio mp3="https://gregscheer.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/GILLIGAN.mp3"][/audio]The text for which this tune was originally written, Isaac Watts’ “The Islands of the Northern Sea Rejoice!” is a real foot-stomper with valleys rising and mountains melting to plains. I knew the tune needed to be strong and solid, with a hint of sea chanty. My first draft sounded suspiciously like the theme from Gilligan’s Island (sea chanty indeed!). I re-wrote the offending “sit right back and you’ll hear a tale” section of the tune, but decided to commemorate my near plagiarism by naming the tune GILLIGAN.

Glory and Honour

A few weeks after meeting Graham Kendrick, I thought, “I’d like to write some music with this guy.” He graciously accepted my offer and we got to work on a song that became “Glory and Honour.” After a few years of Skype calls, long breaks, and a recording lost in a computer crash, I’m pleased to present Graham and Greg’s “Glory and Honour.”
