No 111 in As One Voice: the Next Generation is John Angotti’s “Send Out Your Spirit, Lord.”  This has to have liturgical uses since the text is from the lectionary!  The internet, but not AOV NG, tells me it is … Continue reading →

Trisha Watts and Monica O’Brien wrote this song called, “See, I Make All Things New,” which is No 110 in AOV NG.  This has all the Trisha Watts hallmarks, wandering out of the set key, strange rhythmic shifts – unmistakable and … Continue reading →
