"Give me a clean heart so I might serve thee. Lord, fix my heart so that I might be used by thee." My setting of this fine song with words and music by Margaret J. Douroux uses a gospel style piano accompaniment that your accompanist will enjoy. Works well for youth choirs as well as adults.
An anthem for Ash Wednesday and the Lenten season, with text by Susan Cherwien. "Return to God from wayward ways, and crossed with ash the threshhold cross, into the desert wilderness." Focuses on general Lenten themes of repentance, reflection, and discernment.
This hymn from Ghana is found in in the hymnal This Far by Faith, published by Augsburg Fortress. Centered around the theme "That priceless grace is life for me," the third verse focuses on the cross, "That painful death took sin away," making this a fine anthem for Holy Week. Effectively used for Lent/Holy Week as well as the Easter season.
