Most eloquent ... These hymns have a remarkable way of pin-pointing exactly what the believer feels ... [they] have memorable words, superb phrases, and a progression through the verse which is entirely satisfying ... They are contemporary because they are timeless. * J. R. Watson, Church Times *
The introduction presents some fascinating reflections on the creative process, quoting a wide range of writers, particularly poets. * Praxis, Summer 2012 *
