This is a brand new song from the worship band, "The Many." It reminds us of a simple but powerfully transforming and urgently needed truth--Love is greater than fear. In this pandemic world of so much uncertainty, division, and obvious reasons to be fearful, this is a truth we need to embrace more deeply than ever. Learn More

Another beautiful song from The Many that focuses, as the title makes clear, on Grace.  Reflective, profound in its simplicity both musically and lyrically, and a really lovely recording with some gorgeous harmonies.  This one could be an anthem, the sound track for a visual interpretation used liturgically, or a congregational song, especially the ending tag which takes us back to "Amazing Grace."

Note:  The wonderful Gary Rand (producer, arranger, songwriter for The Many) has provided lead sheets in 2 different keys to help with differing vocal ranges.  You receive them both in one pdf when you purchase the lead sheets).

Quiet Place is from the EP, Have Mercy, from The Many and has been featured as the theme music for Lament Together, the Wednesday night online gatherings hosted by The Many. This is a beautiful, meditative song that can help prepare our hearts and minds to be still, to seek God in the quiet and to express our desire to know God and to learn God’s way. It is perfect as a frame for prayer, or as a prayer response. The piano score alone is an effective underscore to times of lament or congregational prayer. Useful throughout the church year, this song is particularly effective in Lent or Holy Week. Learn More

Can we be honest? Sometimes we wonder where God is and what God does. When horrible things happen in our personal lives and in our world we may not always say it out loud, but we think it...where were you God? Why don't you do something about this? We cry out like the Psalmists did in Psalm 10 "Lord, why are you so far away? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?" Or lament like the writer of Psalm 42: "My tears have been my food day and night, as people constantly question me, 'Where’s your God now?'" This song is about that - remembering some of the recent events that have left us in tears, left us heartbroken and undone. Where was God when children are put in cages on the U.S. border? Where was God when Laquan McDonald was killed or Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor or George Floyd? Where was God when the child is sent to conversion therapy or when we lose thousands and thousands of people in a pandemic? The answers don't come easy in this song...but as we cry out and ask God, "Why didn't you send help?" we sometimes hear God's still, small voice saying, "I did. I sent you." This song is on The Many's 2019 album "Love Greater Than Fear" which is available on iTunes and Spotify.

Looking for an Easter season song that takes a different approach? The Many, as we might expect, has written one. It's a call to follow Jesus and to rise up in solidarity! To rise up and live like hope is real, to live like there is enough to go around, to rise up and be the change we need! "We can rise up and be a holy Alleluia!" It's a song you can sing with soloists and choir, with a congregation singing at full volume and (maybe dancing?)... RISE UP! You can sing it anytime you're in that Easter spirit. NOTE: There is an accompaniment track available for this song (music without the lead vocal and also one without the lead vocal but with the backing vocals on it). If you would like access to these files please contact Bryan Sirchio at bryan@convergencemp.com and request them. Unfortunately at this point we can only make one Mp3 available for download on the product page). CCLI #7196806. One License #63fe4b9205629 Learn More

This is an Advent/Christmas song which works all year long as a song about welcome and hospitality, particularly in relationship to refugees and immigrants. The chant from this song, “We are on this Earth to Love” has become the closing chant at most of The Many's live events. The closing chant is so catchy and soulful that the song is sometimes called, “Room for Us All: We are On this Earth to Love.” Learn More

Tear Down the Walls is part protest song, part lament and and part personal confession. It gives voice to our laments and our anger at the real world walls that divide us while at the same time allowing us to sing our confession for the walls we build between ourselves and others. The last line of the song is a prayer for our churches, our nation, and our personal relationships. “Tear down the walls … so I can see you… So you can see me, too.” Learn More

"You gave us these bodies. And you called them good." For everyone who has ever felt unsure or shamed about their body, a song called, These Bodies, from The Many. The song came out of conversations in the band about how often we get the message that our bodies are sinful, wrong, unholy, how they don't measure up, how we need to fix them. What we try to believe instead (though we don't always act like we believe it …) is that through the Bible, and most fully in the incarnation of Jesus, God says that our bodies are "fearfully, wonderfully made." That we aren't just minds and spirits, we are BODIES, and how we treat our own and everyone else's matters. When we sing "These Bodies,” we remind ourselves of our intrinsic, God created worthiness/wonderfulness. There are so many other messages that we hear and we carry around that damage us. It helps to sing songs that help us remember who God is and who we are. This is one of those songs. Learn More

A brand new song released for Advent 2020! No artists are helping individuals and faith communities these days to both lament and hold on to the hope for Divine Transformation more effectively than The Many. This song helps to name the pain and longing that so many are experiencing at this point in history, but it also invites us to dream new dreams and reminds us that God uses those who dream to change the world.
