What shall we sing today, in this time and place?

Wall examines the hymns written by six of our best-loved six contemporary hymnwriters:

• Colin Gibson
• Shirley Erena Murray
• Bill Wallace
• Marnie Barrell
• Norman Brookes
• Norman Goreham

He identifies their themes and emphases, and assesses their contribution. The book celebrates the hymnwriters work, which offers resources to enhance liturgy and open fresh spiritual paths.

This is a time to harvest the labour and love of these poets who broaden our vision of Christian discipleship.
