Lectionary Hymns for Cycle B

This book offers 69 reflections inspired by the Psalm readings for every Sunday and major festival in Cycle B of the Revised Common Lectionary, each set in several verses and metered so that they can be sung with familiar tunes found in many hymnals. The texts creatively express scripture themes and their relevance for faith today, and may be sung in worship or read as poetic substitutes for the assigned passages. Because they expand and reinforce the main idea expressed in each week's Psalm, the hymn-texts in this volume will be especially useful for those who want to assemble an integrated worship service. But this book isn't just for pastors, worship leaders, and music directors - it's also an excellent resource for personal devotions and meditation. Clyde W. Wentzell is a retired pastor who served Lutheran parishes in Nova Scotia and Ontario, Canada. He is a former editor of The Canada Lutheran, and has contributed daily devotions to Eternity for Today, published by the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada. He now resides in Walkerton, Ontario.
