Great Sacred Music: Rivers
Great Sacred Music Podcast
Thursday 14 May
Rivers
Our online Great Sacred Music series, launched in light of St Martin’s temporary closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic, is uploaded every Thursday at 1.00pm.
Great Sacred Music began in 2013 and has continued on Thursdays at 1.00pm ever since. It’s part of the way St Martin’s is trying to reimagine faith and outreach. If you’d like to support our work and help #keepourdoorsopen please donate to our Emergency Appeal here.
Led by Revd Dr Sam Wells
with St Martin’s Voices
directed by Andrew Earis
Music
I stood on the river of Jordan – arr. Hogan
Like a mighty river flowing (t. Old Yeavering)
Shall we gather at the river – Victor Johnson
