A reverent and expressive setting of the beloved responsorial psalm “Your Words, Lord, Are Spirit and Life,” based on Psalm 19. Written in a flowing and meditative style, this piece reflects the beauty, wisdom, and life-giving power of God’s Word. The melodic lines are both accessible and emotionally engaging, making the work ideal for parish choirs, cantors, and worship communities seeking a reflective and spiritually uplifting psalm setting.
Drawing from the psalm’s themes of divine truth, renewal, and spiritual nourishment, this setting creates an atmosphere of prayerful contemplation while allowing the Scripture text to shine clearly and naturally. Especially appropriate for liturgies focused on the Word of God, discipleship, and spiritual renewal, the music offers warmth, sincerity, and gentle lyricism throughout.
A practical and inspiring Psalm 19 setting that combines liturgical usefulness with heartfelt musical expression.

My recent contemporary arrangement of Sebastian Temple’s classic 1960s hymn, "Happy the Man," has reached the Number 1 position on the New Age Notes music charts. I would like to share my story with you.
As a music director/organist, I am always looking for additional sources for new, old, and forgotten hymns and other music. This resource would also be an excellent way to broaden my view of hymnody through history, hymnals, composers, sources, etc. I look forward to new discoveries!
