Strength and Tenderness: Hymns, Songs, Poems Doug Constable

Strength and Tenderness is a collection of hymns and poems in several genres which range in style from 'traditional' four-part harmony and jazz-inflected songs through to hymn-anthems. Some consist of new words to well-loved tunes, others of new music to well-loved words, but most have both words and music by the author. Appropriately expressive in character, these deeply felt hymns touch many aspects of Christian faith and experience, and have been warmly appreciated by many who have sung various of the pieces.
