1. As the Moon
    By: Christopher Grundy

    This gorgeous chorus from Christopher Grundy is a poetic invitation to sing the soul's deepest yearnings and longings for union with the Divine.  We have a feeling this one's going to be used widely.  It could be done in a variety of styles and tempos and used both in worship contexts and beyond (another potential great camp song).

  2. Ashes
    By: My Anchor Holds

    “Ashes” was written for Ash Wednesday worship, to be played during the imposition of ashes, or during Communion any time of year. It's a reminder that in our messy, disconnected human moments, we can be reconnected to the Divine and to one another through the most elemental things… bread, wine, water, earth. Learn More

  4. Ask Seek Knock
    By: The Many

    In the spirit of John Bell and Taize, here is a new 2 or 3 part round that can be sung unaccompanied or with a band and/or choir and congregation. It's a setting from The Many of the powerful words of God’s care for us in Matthew 7:7. "Ask and it shall be given. Seek and you will find. Knock and the door will be opened.” If you have never tried to sing a round with your congregation, this is a place to start. This is also a great song to use as a table grace, before congregational dinners or in small groups or family dinners. Learn More

  5. Atheist
    By: Brian McLaren

    The brilliant lyrics of Brian McLaren naming some of the "false gods" that he does not believe in, and affirming the beautiful Divine Truth he does embrace and to which he commits his life. Probably a bit more of an anthem or solo song that a congregational piece, but very much worthy of being used liturgically. Learn More

  6. Be Still And Know
    By: Sherri Hansen

    This is a brand new song by composer Sherri Hansen based on the well known line from Psalm 46:10, "Be still and know that I am God." Sherri has done a beautiful job of putting to music the "subtraction prayer" practice by which a word is removed from this phrase until the word "be" is all that remains before going into silence. The audio was produced and performed by well known CMP artist Richard Bruxvoort-Colligan, and the still photos in the video were taken by Sherri Hansen. This simple but beautiful song is going to be used widely we're sure! Learn More

    By: Andra Moran

This song describes the big, bright beautiful world as the dream of God, which is ours to guard and protect. Fresh language captures the imagination and delights the senses. If you're looking for a song that rhymes "birch" and "church," this is the one! Learn More

  12. Bless This Good Earth
    By: Richard Bruxvoort Colligan

    "Bless This Good Earth" is a song for body anointing. It was originally made to fit within a Holy Week service remembering the Woman with the Alabaster Jar who anointed Jesus days before his death (John 12:1-3, Luke 7:36-50, Mark 14:3-9, Matthew 26:6-13). The central refrain invites the community to sing of our bodies the way we do on Ash Wednesday-- as dust, good earth. The verses invite a blessing with oil or water on eyes, ears, lips, heart, shoulders, hands and feet. Learn More

    By: Richard Bruxvoort Colligan

  15. Break Our Hearts Again
    By: Paul Demer

    A hauntingly beautiful melody and poetic lyrics that can be used as a lament, a prayer of longing for deeper union and response to God, and that ends with a resolve to "lay our armour down." 

    Note:  The sheet music for this song is in a key that is significantly lower than the artist's recording in order to make the range more accessible for congregational singing.  If you purchase the sheet music and would like it also in the original key, please contact CMP and we will send it to you at no additional charge.
