- Notes
- "[B]y Herbert O'Driscoll with 10 new tunes and arrangements by Patrick Wedd".
- "This collection of twenty hymns, varying much in style and content, grew out of a period which is probably the most eventful and traumatic two decades of Christian experience in recent generations. The earliest was composed in 1963 and the latest in 1978. Two of them were in time to be included in the new Hymn Book used widely by the Anglican and United Churches in Canada. Others have been accepted for use in other hymn books produced in the last decade". -- Preface.
- Most hymns have an introduction giving background and context for the hymn. Hymns 15-20 have the following introduction: "The following six hymns have a common origin and purpose and so are placed together. Each hymn is a metrical version of the central thought in the Propers of a particular Sunday in the Christian Year as we have it in the Book of Common Prayer. In all cases the form is that of three verses, for Collect, Epistle, and Gospel respectively."
