The Lenten hymns composed by noted Presbyterian hymn writer, Carolyn Winfrey Gillette.
The Presbyterian Outlook commissioned Carolyn to prepare Lenten hymns based on the lectionary text for Year C for each Sunday of Lent, plus Ash Wednesday, Passion Sunday, and Easter. The hymns have been scored by David Gambrell, Associate for Worship in the Office of Theology and Worship.
The hymns are available for download in a PDF format. There is a half page version for insertion in a worship bulletin, a full page version for choir and muscians and a large print version as well as a text only version. You download a master and print as many copies as needed. Each hymn is $9.95 or purchase all 8 as a package for $49.95. You can preview low-resoluation versions of all of the hymns. Purchasing a hymn will give you access to a high-resolution PDF master with multiple layouts (half-page bulletin insert, full page score for choirs, and a large print version).

"There's Not a Thing That God Can't Do!"
WINCHESTER OLD CM (“While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks”)
"There's not a thing that God can't do!"
The angel said. "Not one!
For Mary, God has favored you
And you will bear God's Son."

John Came Preaching, Bearing Witness
REGENT SQUARE 8.7.8.7.8.7 (“Angels, from the Realms of Glory”)
John came preaching, bearing witness,
Pointing to God's only Son.
He proclaimed the truth with boldness:
"Now believe! God's light has come!"
Yet he would not be the focus;
He proclaimed a greater One.
