Lover of Us All
By Dan Schutte
Strengthen the communal worship of your congregation with music of prayer. This collection includes pieces that can work in many liturgical settings: Advent/Christmas, Lent/Easter, weddings, funerals, initiation, reconciliation and anointing liturgies—a little something for everyone.
Covering a wide variety of musical styles, some of the pieces were conceived and written specifically for piano or organ accompaniment, others were arranged for guitar. In some cases, this means that the guitarist will have to think of the song in a new way and use their creativity to make the piece musically strong and prayerful. The performance notes in the songbook are a definite help in this regard.
Dan's first solo collection, Lover of Us All is filled with the beautiful melodies and scripture-based texts that are the hallmarks of his music. He offers these songs up for "all those who need to know the One who is Lover of Us All."
