As the title suggests, this piece is a love song to our planet. In the midst of continuous bad news about global warming and natural disasters, this melodic song is filled with the wonder of the Creator's love for all creation and the hope that humanity, recognizing our own place within creation, will join in the song of love for our shared home. Easily singable by soloist, choir, or congregation, Love to Earth will be in your heart and mind long after the music ends. The video, with its majestic images of nature, brings the lyrics to life.

"From living soil we were formed. You breathed into us living souls. Made of love, made to love.” These are lyrics from this new song by The Many. A song of love for the earth, and for the God of creation. It’s a song to sing on every “Earth Day” and for all the days in between. It is one of a new group of songs being written by The Many to help us reflect and pray and give thanks for the earth in this time of climate change. CCLI# 7195087 Learn More

Brian McLaren is known widely for his many books and his signficant role as one of the pioneers and theological framers of the "Emerging Church" movement.  But music and songwriting in particular has also been a passion of Brian's for many years.  Brian took a travel sabbatical for the first part of 2016 during which he composed a number of new songs for worship.  Many of these new songs of his will soon be available primarily if not exclusively through CMP!

No one is more humble and self-deprecating when it comes to his own playing and singing than Brian, so cut him some slack if his "Garage Band" demos aren't flawless.  We or others may redo some of these songs in a more studio polished format, but we want to begin sharing his new songs with the Church right away.  Few songwriters hit the lyrical heart and essence of what CMP is all about any more deeply and consistently than Brian.

"Spirit Running" is a fun, joyful, upbeat song proclaiming the call to do justice and to care for and honor the earth.  Enjoy!
