Squeezebox is a place for our Song Leaders, as well as congregants, to learn the songs we sing at St. Lydia\u2019s. \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here’s all the music you’ll need for the Advent Season at St. Lydia’s this year. \u00a0Advent is usually a four week season that leads into Christmas, but we’re reclaiming an earlier tradition of a seven week Advent. \u00a0This will give us a little more time to settle into the themes of beginning and ending, expectation, hope and waiting.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Gathering Song<\/span><\/p>\n

Come O Lord And Set Us Free<\/a>, from the Iona Community in Scotland<\/p>\n

or<\/p>\n

Come Now, O Prince of Peace<\/a>, with text and music by Geonyong Lee. \u00a0Sheet music is here<\/a>! \u00a0Please note that if the silver setting is too low for you, you can sing this one on blue as well.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Candle Lighting Song<\/span><\/p>\n

Each week of Advent, we’ll chant, call and response, a verse of O Come O Come Emmanuel<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0We’ll start by singing the verse call and response, then sing it again overlapping. \u00a0Each time the refrain comes around, bring in the whole congregation together, without call and response!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Table Acclamation<\/span><\/p>\n

The Vasile Advent Table Acclamation<\/a>. \u00a0This one is all kinds of bluesy, and Paul Vasile<\/a> wrote it just for us!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Prayer Song<\/span><\/p>\n

Song Leader’s choice. \u00a0A selection of songs may be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Offering Song (After Clean Up)<\/span><\/p>\n

Laudate Dominum<\/a> (or, “Sing Praise and Bless the Lord,), from the Taize Community in France. \u00a0Sheet music may be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Final Hymn<\/span><\/p>\n

In November we’ll sing Lo, How A Rose E’er Blooming<\/a>, and in December we’ll sing St. Lydia’s favorite, People Look East<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
