Psalms of Faithfulness and Hope

Chanted antiphonally in the Anglican tradition, and sung in a spirit of worship and prayer, the 19 psalms selected for He Has Heard My Voice reflect the faithfulness of God in response to the Psalmist's pleas. This second volume of Anglican Psalmody in this series includes: Psalm 23 "The Lord is my shepherd," Psalm 121 "I lift up mine eyes unto the hills," Psalm 46 "God is our refuge and strength," Psalm 63 "O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee," and many other familiar words of comfort in the Coverdale translation, illuminated by the voices of Gloriæ Dei Cantores and the Skinner organ of the Church of the Transfiguration.

"These exemplary realizations by this outstanding vocal ensemble are borne out of a depth of experience and insight, significantly informed by the late George Guest of St. John's College, Cambridge. One need not refer to printed texts, due to the crystal clarity of diction and absolute unanimity of rhythm. Sensitivity of text painting, both in the settings and in their interpretations, bring forward subtle meanings of the texts. Organ accompaniments are discreet, supportive, colorful, and imaginative. This production will be appreciated for its value as an ideal model for the performance of Anglican chant, for meditation and spiritual enrichment, and for the beauty of the music as experienced through these sterling renditions."  — The American Organist
