Boyce-Tillman, June: A Rainbow to Heaven
Ref: B890
Stainer & Bell are pleased to announce the publication of
A Rainbow to Heaven
, which brings together in one volume many of the musical settings and texts which are the fruit of June Boyce-Tillmans commitment to the empowerment of women.
Her role as composer, performer, writer, teacher and theologian is faithfully reflected in 167 items, which draw on a diversity of traditional and modern sources to create a unique and inspiring collection.
There is material here that relates to the themes of dance, healing, ecology, the medieval abbess Hildegard of Bingen, women saints, the Wisdom tradition, peace and justice, ecumenism and inter-faith dialogue, inclusive language and many other topics of contemporary interest.
A fascinating introduction places the hymns, songs and chants in the context of Junes evolving thought about the nature of music, worship, spirituality and the role of women.

Hymn Texts 1991-1996
This second collection of Alan Gaunt's works contains 56 hymn texts written between 1991 and 1996, and includes 34 translations from the Welsh of hymnwriter Ann Griffiths. The title, taken from a sonnet by Vernon Watkins, reflects what Fred Kaan, in the introduction to this book, describes as the author's "fascination with eternal glory, coupled with the earth-boundness of his daily life, that enables him to choose words and use expressions that catch the inexpressible".

Gaunt, Alan: Beyond All Words

Hymn Texts 2003-2011
The fourth collection of hymns by Alan Gaunt,
Beyond All Words
, brings together 89 texts on a variety of themes that are both contemporary and yet grounded in the perennial questions of theology.
In his Foreword, Emeritus Professor David M. Thompson writes 'One could see this collection as a diary of the first decade of the third millennium, during which so many of the bright hopes with which the new era began were ruthlessly smashed with the most up-to-date military technology available. So again and again the human existential question "Why?" is translated into the ultimate question in Christian theology of the "Why?" of the cross.'

Gaunt, Alan: The Hymn Texts of Alan Gaunt
Ref: B801
Hymn Texts to 1991
The Reverend Alan Gaunt, a minister of the United Reformed Church, is particularly known for his hymn texts "We pray for peace" and "Lord Christ, we praise your sacrifice". This volume brings together his corpus of writing. He is strongly biblical in his approach and is prepared to look at Bible, faith and the contemporary world squarely, bringing them together in texts for use in worship. His work also includes some new translations from early texts intended for use by a new generation. Such new exposure to the original through a new translation can be salutary. The introduction is written by the Reverend Alan Luff.

Green, Fred Pratt: The Hymns and Ballads of Fred Pratt Green
Ref: B612
With commentary by Bernard Braley
This book, published in 1982, contains the texts of 209 hymns and ballads of this well-loved Methodist hymnwriter who died in 2000 and tells many of the stories behind them. The book has proved useful - not only as a book of reference - but as a book of excellent devotional material for the everyday reader. Some may recall Fred's "Hymn for the Nation" sung in churches up and down the land on the occasion of the Queen's Silver Jubilee - a good choice for the Golden Jubilee in 2002!
It is God who holds the nations in the hollow of his hand;
It is God whose light is shining in the darkness of the land;
It is God who builds his City on the Rock and not the sand:
May the living God be praised!

Green, Fred Pratt: Partners in Creation
Ref: B878
Compiled by Bernard Braley
Published in the centenary year of his birth, the 166 texts in this book reflect Fred Pratt Greens final thoughts on the definitive corpus of work that he wished should survive him. They incorporate amendments arising from sensitivity to inclusive language and other revisions, sanctioned either by Fred himself or by his literary executor and editor, Bernard Braley, who also supplied editorial notes and an anthology of quotations from Freds diaries.
Material is offered for a wide range of themes in worship, organised under the headings of God, Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, The Church and The Christian Life. An addendum of tunes, many composed for the collection, adds to its versatile and practical application as a source book from one of the twentieth-centurys most influential hymnwriters.

Green, Fred Pratt: The Last Lap
Ref: B807
With his move to a Methodist Home for the Aged, Fred believed his writing days to be over. 'I knew that old age does nothing for the inspiration'. However, he was wrong, and this modest 'sequence in verse on the theme of old age' brings smiles and tears as Fred takes us into his new home and shares his, and the community's, hopes and fears, joys and sorrows in 53 'verses'; on themes as diverse as 'Sex in Old Age', Bonnets and Perms', and 'Going to Church in a Mini-bus'. All royalties from the sale of this book are being donated to the Methodist Home for the Aged.

Ref: B854
Hymns translated by Alan Gaunt.
Music edited by Alan Luff.
Letters translated and edited by Alan Luff.
Introduction by Kathryn Jenkins.
"Though little known in her lifetime (1776-1805), Ann Griffiths is now widely regarded as being among the leading hymnwriters in Wales. She is a major figure whose word speaks strongly to a contemporary audience at a time of growing sensitivity to Christian spirituality in its many and varied forms, and to the often unacknowledged role of women in the life and history of the church. As a crystallising of the gifts of many people, this treasure of a book would be hard to rival."

The 135 hymns and songs in
Whatever Name or Creed
are texts for today, reflections by Andrew Pratt on a variety of contemporary topics, illuminated in the searchlight of his insistent and uncompromising questioning.

Routley, Erik: Our Lives be Praise
Ref: HP389
The hymn tunes, carols and texts of Erik Routley. This anthology brings together 115 tunes and 33 literary texts. After a distinguished ministry in Great Britain, he spent ten years on the staff of Princeton University in the USA. Dr Carlton Young in an editor's introduction notes: "Both fledgling and noted composers of hymn tunes will benefit from a study of Routley's work, particularly his approach to solving the problems of setting a text's 'general mood' and providing new tunes for familiar texts, as well as unfamiliar poems sometimes written in odd metres."

Wren, Brian: Piece Together Praise
Ref: B835
Sensitive to the diversity of faith and worship in our modern world, Brian Wren here draws together the many strands of his experience as a hymn writer. Subtitled "A Theological Journey", and conceived with the needs of worship planners and private readers in mind, this innovative book pieces together its contents in the manner of the patterned fabric quilts traditional to the Dakota area of North America.
"I appreciated the author's suggestion of at least four ways to use his book: for worship and preaching, as a work of theology, for educating adults and youth, and for a personal spiritual journey."
