Augsburg Fortress

This collection contains twenty-one hymns by Susan Palo Cherwien, her fourth and final collection of hymn texts for worshiping assemblies. With grace and beauty, Cherwien calls us to sing of the wonder of God’s creation, our place in it, and the saving and inspiring works of Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Spanning the church year and the range of Christian life, this is a collection ideally suited for assembly song as well as devotion and inspiration. Many tunes have been newly composed for this collection, while others appear with familiar melodies.

This volume also contains comprehensive indexes of her four volumes of hymnody, with references for scripture text, topic, church year, text meter, and tune names to aid musicians, pastors, and worship leaders as they plan worship.
