My Faith Looks Up to Thee

Description :

The familiar hymns that James J. Stanley has chosen for this collection are of American origin, come primarily from the 19th century, and remain favorites in nearly every hymnal. As usual, Stanley employs a very creative approach to his hymn settings, sometimes coming at a tune with a different perspective than is usually expected. This allows the performer and listener alike to think carefully and reflect on the meaning and message of the text. The pieces are contrasting in mood and can serve as service music for any time of year.
