Psalm 104: Oh, Rejoice in All Your Works
$0.00 – $35.00 Select optionshttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/kimbrough-psalm_104.mp3
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 107: Thanks Be to God Our Savior
$0.00 – $5.00 Select optionshttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/ps107-thanks_be_to_god.mp3
David Diephouse’s metrical setting of Psalm 107 is paired with a guitar-friendly tune that supports the stress/salvation pattern of the text with a major/minor harmonic sequence. The above MP3 is the Choral Scholars singing the piano accompaniment version. Below is the COS Guitarchestra in a rendition that would be perfect if there were ever an album The Eagles Sing the Psalms. This song also appears in Psalms for All Seasons, 107D.

Psalm 108: O God, My Heart Is Ready
$0.00 Add to carthttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/wp-content/uploads/psalm_108-o_god_my_heart_is_ready_1.mp3
Kate Bluett has a knack for writing hymns that are fresh and insightful, yet draw a worshiper’s attention to the subject rather than the words. Her rendering of Psalm 108 captures the hope and confidence of this morning prayer perfectly. The music matches her words with a melody that leaps and dives like a brisk ride through a hilly landscape at sunrise.

$0.00 Add to carthttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/wp-content/uploads/psalm_011-our_god_is_still_on_the_throne.mp3
Though a few millennia may obscure some of Psalm 11’s meaning, the theme is still relevant today: life can be scary, and sometimes even what seems reliable can crumble beneath us. Still, God is in control and watches over us. This song recasts Psalm 11’s timeless message in modern language and heartfelt Gospel-style music style.

Psalm 113: From the Rising of the Sun
$0.00 Add to carthttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/scheer_psalm_113-from_the_rising.mp3
The first half of Psalm 113 is lots of beautiful creation imagery, but the second half contains some things that don’t fit as neatly into a modern worship song: God raises the needy from the garbage dump and places them among princes; he gives the barren woman children. I boiled this down to three themes in verse 2: God gives us a place at the table, a place in the kingdom of God, and a place in God’s family. This song is part of my Hallel Psalm cantata, Everlasting to Everlasting.

Psalm 115 contrasts the God of heaven with idols made by human hands. The true God hears those who pray and deserves all glory, whereas deaf idols are only worth the gold they’re made from.

Psalm 117: All You Nations
$0.00 Add to carthttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/psalm_117-all_you_nations.mp3
This, the shortest of Psalms, is made up of two, diminutive sections. The first is a call to all people of the world to praise God, the second gives the reason for praise: God’s steadfast love. This song is part of my Hallel Psalm cantata, Everlasting to Everlasting.

Psalm 118: Everlasting to Everlasting
$5.00 Select optionshttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/COS-easter_everlasting.mp3
This last song from my Hallel Psalm cantata, Everlasting to Everlasting, is a setting of Psalm 118. This song is a slow burn—it sneaks up on you rather than grabbing you by the collar and shaking you. Use it like you would a song from Taizé, to accompany communion or as part of a contemplative service, for example.
