Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson. You with the sad eyes Don't be discouraged Oh I realize It's hard to take courage In a world full of people You can lose sight of it all and the darkness inside you Can make you feel so small But I see your true colors Shining through I see your true colors and that's why I love you So don't be afraid to let them show Your true colors True colors are beautiful, Like a rainbow Show me a smile then, Don't be unhappy, can't remember When I last saw you laughing If this world makes you crazy and you've taken all you can bear You call me up Because you know I'll be there and I'll see your true colors Shining through I see your true colors and that's why I love you So don't be ...    less

Gawthrop text by Jane Griner Performed by Octarium from the Essentials album In my heart's sequestered chambers lie truths stripped of poet's gloss. Words alone are vain and vacant, and my heart is mute. In response to aching silence memory summons half-heard voices, and my soul finds primal eloquence and wraps me in song. If you would comfort me, sing me a lullaby. If you would win my heart, sing me a love song. If you would mourn me and bring me to God, Sing me a requiem, Sing me to heaven. Touch in me all love and passion, pain and pleasure, Touch in me grief and comfort; love and passion, Pain and pleasure. Sing me a lullaby, a love song, a requiem, Love me, comfort me, bring me to God: Sing me a love song, Sing me to heaven.  less

God is gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of the trumpet. Sing ye praises to God; sing praises. Sing praises to our King; sing praises. for God is the King of all the earth. Sing ye praises every one that hath understanding. God reigneth over the heathen. God sitteth upon the throne of His holiness. Sing praises unto our King. Sing praises. Sung at Canterbury Cathedral during our Royal School of Church Music Summer Course in 1986, under Martin How. I (David W Solomons) was one of the altos. John Huntley - a fellow alto - recorded this performance.  less
