Cantica Sacra

<p>In the years of my ministry as I was testing out ways to express my thoughts I tried writing hymn texts. After a while having fallen into a scheme I called Cantica Sacra I found that the hymn texts I created were useful. On occasion I would import them into worship a text pertinent to what was being read as the scriptural basis of the day set to a familiar hymn tune; that made the transfer easy for the congregation. But they also served me well as a first reflection in one genre on the scripture from which I would be preaching a few weeks later. This book picks up that developing system twenty-odd years after the beginning providing a settlement into the text and a resonance much like that which a hymn offers to one singing.</p>
