--------------

Robert Lau is sort of a local phenom -- well-known as an organist, conductor, professor, and composer. His anthem "Prayer" is based on Psalm 25, and while far from being a masterwork, is a perennial favorite of this choir, and is actually quite nice. "Change Our Hearts", while not my favorite, is still a valid selection based on the scriptures of the day, and let's face it, there are many worse things that could be used......

  1. I'm not too familiar with "Change our hearts", but I'm sure, like you said, there's far worse out there. You kept away from Conry's Ashes (even on Ash Wed.) - kudos!
