Based on the amazing worship songs found in GIA’s Gather series of hymnals, acclaimed composer Mark Hayes has created this book of solo arrangements for piano. Classics like “All Are Welcome,” “Blest Are They,” and “The Love of the Lord” are all arranged in Mark’s signature style. These highly respected and cherished hymns are elevated by rich harmonies and florid embellishments. Each solo is three minutes or less in length, of medium difficulty, and is arranged in the key in which it would normally be sung. They work perfectly as preludes or postludes and can even be used as an extended introduction to the singing of the hymn.

A unique concept is behind this collection from beloved composer and arranger Robert Lau. For each of the chosen hymns of praise, there are two entirely different organ settings: one of quiet prelude (or offertory) character and one of extroverted postlude character. They can be used as individual pieces or played at the beginning and end of worship to provide coherent service bookends.
