" As we come to Mother's Day this Sunday our choice of songs encourage us to give thanks for all the people and good things in our lives that have helped us along our way and maybe, especially, over the last year. "Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ" Ephesians 5 v20.
Our first choice is the beautiful John Rutter arrangement of For the Beauty of the Earth.
The second song is by Charlie Coxill and is called Litany of Thanks. The photograph was taken while Charlie was on retreat several years ago on Anglesey. This was at a very poignant time in his life and this place holds huge spiritual significance and is somewhere we are truly thankful for.
" The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge... Psalm 18 v2 "
For the Beauty of the Earth.- John Rutter
