Wendell Kimbrough’s setting of Psalm 104 won the COS New Psalm Contest in 2014. Since then, I’ve arranged this song for strings, brass, and choir. These arrangements bring out a whole new majestic side to the song.

Psalm 104: We Praise You, O Lord
$0.00 Add to carthttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/doug_gay-psalm_104.mp3
My friend Doug Gay wrote this setting of Psalm 104. I wanted a tune that would act as a foil to this text, lightening rather than heightening the majesty of the words. And since Doug is Scottish, what could be better than an airy Celtic tune?

Psalm 5: Hear My Words, O Lord
$0.00 – $5.00 Select options[embed]http://musicblog.gregscheer.com/Ps005-hear_my_words.mp3[/embed]My setting of Psalm 5, “Hear My Words, O God” is composed for two narrators and congregational refrain. It appears as Psalm 5C in the Psalms for All Seasons hymnal, but if you want the un-squished piano music and choral parts you hear on this recording you’ll only find it here. The above recording is just a rough read-through by the Choral Scholars which doesn’t include the scripture reading. The narration allows the whole Psalm to be heard and allows the multiple voices of the original text to come through, as you can hear from the live worship recording below.

Sanna, Sannanina – flute/piccolo descant
$5.00 Add to carthttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/sanna_sannanina-flute.mp3
“Sanna, Sannanina” is a delightful South African song that is perfect for joyous Palm Sunday processions. Here I’ve added a flute descant that is almost as rhythmic as the djembe accompaniment. The recording above is an instrumental version with flute and djembe; this descant would also work over the congregation, choir, or praise team singing the song.
Descants for flute/piccolo. Download also includes SATB hymn with both South African and English texts.

Seven Last Words: 6. I Trust My Soul to You
$0.00 Add to carthttp://musicblog.gregscheer.com/wp-content/uploads/i_trust_my_soul_to_you.mp3
“Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” In the drama of the crucifixion, these words meant, “I’m ready to die.” But there is another layer of meaning, for Jesus and for us: Jesus committed himself–trusted his whole being–to God’s care. That should be our posture, too, both in our living and our dying.

Speak Sabbath O’er My Soul
