| Abstract |
This is a collection of 111 worship songs from all over the world, compiled as a resource for the 2003 LWF Assembly, which met under the theme "For the Healing of the World." The songbook, published by Oxford University Press in association with the LWF, communicates agape, all-embracing love, as expressed by Christians around the world. This fellowship of love, or agape, is vital to each one of us. The songbook aims to contribute toward an experience of healing, hope and reconciliation of individuals and societies. The songbook, compiled by an ecumenical team of musicians, lyricists and theologians from around the globe, provides an additional volume of worship resources for the LWF member churches and can be used worldwide at ecumenical and multicultural gatherings. The songs are wide-ranging and encourage churches and congregations to develop their style of worship. All songs are printed first in the original language, followed by translations into English, German, French and Spanish. When appropriate, keyboard accompaniments, guitar chords and rhythmic patterns are given. |
