These are songs that I have had the opportunity to record over the years, some done as personal projects (Divinity Dwelling in Dust, Remain, The Eucharist of Beulah and Pearl, Psalm 119) and others done for Spring Garden Church (Drawn Above being a collaborative effort of all of the SGC musicians, and the rest being recordings to help teach new music that was written to go along our communities fall curriculum). I have also included a "Songs of Friends" album which is a compilation of songs written and recorded by other Spring Gardeners either from Drawn Above or one of the fall curriculum CDs.
Simply click on the album art to hear the songs. The "Songs of Friends" collection is the one with the songsofthegathering logo.
