Songs for the seasons of love
An eclectic collection of words & music from different ages, fused in contemporary arrangements.

These are songs of engagement with life and with God, all grounded in the passion and pain of Christian love. Includes Were I the perfect child of God and The mind of God.
A CD of all the songs in the book by the Wild Goose Collective & Macappella is also available. Both groups are comprised of ex-WGWG members and associates of the WGRG.

Contents
The Lord is my light
How can I keep from singing
The treasure
Were I the perfect child
I will give what I have
I will sing a song of love
He is the Way
Jesus Christ, here among us
A cradling song
In this darkness
If the war goes on
I heard the voice of Jesus say
Hey my love
I am the Vine
O Jesus, sweet the thought of you
Mothering
The mind of God

“Those who want to find evidence of overt left-wing politics, whether to applaud or condemn, will doubtless do so; but I found only Biblical witness in modern dress.” – KAY GRIFFITHS (in THE HYMN SOCIETY BULLETIN)
Peter Dilley –
“Astonishingly diverse culturally, the music literally spans the four corners of the globe… beautiful to listen to as (it is) challenging in content. Prophetically distinctive…” – PETER DILLEY (in NEW CHRISTIAN HERALD)
M. Milner Siefert –
When I come across a collection by John Bell, I usually find several things that will be useful to my ministry. I often find things which help me find words to address difficult situations or ideas. I also sometimes find words and music which move me deeply. In I WILL NOT SING ALONE, I find them all. I commend this collection to pastors, ministers of music, and all who sing the songs of faith.” – M.MILNER SIEFERT (in THE HYMN)
