Glory and Praise

Thoughts on Glory and Praise 

Glory and Praise to our God by Dan Schutte was one of the first hymns I heard by the St. Louis Jesuits that made me interested in contemporary church music.  Their melodic gifts combined with scripturally relevant texts drew me back into the prayer I had fallen away from. I actually wanted to go to church on Sunday because I wanted to join in singing the music.  This Easter reflection for piano and organ is both triumphant and subdued.  I hope that it causes you to reflect on the blessings we have to be so thankful for.
