Fairest Lord Jesus
Price range: $0.00 through $25.00 Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product page[audio mp3="https://gregscheer.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/wendell-fairest.mp3"][/audio]This arrangement brings a unique twist to the classic hymn, “Fairest Lord Jesus”— it is in 6/8! Wendell Kimbrough of Church of the Incarnation in Dallas had a vision for an understated rendition of the song accompanied by acoustic praise band with strings. At first, the 6/8 looks a little odd on the page, but when you hear it, it has an undeniably charming lilt.

FEAST OF REJECTION
https://musicblog.gregscheer.com/as_in_that_upper_room.mp3
I wrote this tune for Timothy Dudley-Smith’s Maundy Thursday hymn, “As In that Upper Room You Left Your Seat.” The meter is 10.10.10.10, with a repeat of the final line. You’ll notice there are no time signatures. I want people to sing the melody with a strong sense of phrasing rather than slavishly reading meter changes. Just sing it like chant, with a quarter note pulse.
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.

From the City
[audio mp3="https://gregscheer.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/from_the_city.mp3"][/audio]Using the early American tune HOLY MANNA in a brand new folk arrangement, this text is a prayer that God would bring peace and justice on earth and a call to God’s people to work toward this never-ending jubilee. Among other places, it was sung at the 2007 general synod of the Reformed Church in America.

From the Dust You Shall Raise Us Up
Price range: $0.00 through $25.00 Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pagehttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/Ps103-from_the_dust.mp3
I had an unfortunate opportunity to reflect on mortality when my friend Christina Mandang was hit by a car. Her sudden and senseless death at the age of 38 reminded me once again how fleeting our lives are. It is truly ashes to ashes and dust to dust, with precious little time in between. The good news is that the God who breathed life into dust to create Adam and who resurrected Jesus from the grave is the same God who has promised to raise us from death to eternal life.

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.
