Te Deum Laudamus in C Major by Sir Charle Villiers Sanford

Another from Sir Charles Villiers Sanford re: Te Deum Laudamus, C Major, for Morning Prayer. Helpful for meditation and the expression of confession, praise and petition. Two needful things for the disciplined Anglican Churchman, the 1662 BCP and this internet resource. For the Psalms, we continue to commend the Psalter-set from St. Paul's Cathedral, London, UK. The latter can be purchased directly from St. Paul's website, although this scribe purchased his set through http://www.amazon.com/.

Fortunately, though we are high church Anglicans and living in the Anglican Babylonian Captivity in the west, we are not totally routed or denied our past, our doctrine (Reformed Confessions), Prayer Book (1662), our music of confession, praise and petition, nor our biblical piety. Thank God we have these resources despite the leadership, including the westernized, Americanized, and amnesiacal Bishops--the latter being practical exhibits for the near-adoption of Synodical and Presbyterian polity. But the Presbyterians, at least the American ones, have no Anglican liturgy nor musical traditions. Being alone, however, we press on in confession, praise, prayer and with high views of God, His Word, His doctrines, and exhortations. The "Religio Americanorum" has no appeal for the disciplined Churchman. "Here we stand, so help us God."
