1. 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.

  2. Break the Cages
    By: Jackie and Matt LeFevers

    This song proclaims the simple truth that the Divine is too big and vast to be contained by any one name or concept or even theology.  A beautiful reminder that God will always be more than our ability to comprehend or describe the Holy One.

    For those for whom the word/image "King" is problematic, the word "Source" can be inserted there with the composers' consent.  We've listed the lyric this way in the second verse of the song on the sheet music even though the audio file uses "King" both times.

  3. Broken Body of Christ
    By: The Many

    When we gather around the communion table, we experience not just the body of Christ “on the table” but also the “body of Christ” represented by all of us who “gather around the table.” All of us broken, needy, wanderers, seekers, believers, doubters … all around the table together. All loved by God and welcomed to the table just as we are. This is a song for us to sing around the table and every time we need to remember God’s deep, inclusive love. Note: A lyric video for this song was just added to the site! Learn More

  5. By The Stream
    By: Christopher Grundy

    “By the Stream” is an easy, comforting refrain that sounds like it is based upon Psalm 1 but is actually drawn from Jeremiah 17:7-8. The image of a tree rooted deeply near a stream reminds us of the blessings of trusting in God. The song is best accompanied by guitar and/or piano. Cello and mandolin parts are included in the full score and are also available separately. Learn More
