Recognized as one of the leading hymn text authors of our time, Sister Delores has given the church more texts to enrich its worship and spiritual life. Drawing on her many years of experience leading worship in a religious community, she has written a wide variety of new texts, some of which are useful for particular liturgical celebrations, others that deal with contemporary topics, still others that artfully tell biblical stories. They all exhibit the scriptural focus and deep spirituality that characterize her texts. Highlights include a profound “Christ’s Promise in the Face of Death,” an exuberant and rousing “The Joy of the Gospel,” and the compelling call to care for all of God’s creation, “Who Is the Neighbor.” Some selections include guitar chords.
