Let All Mortal Flesh is now available on major streaming sites or for download from iTunes.
It came out in November in time for advent but our website was down. Subscribe to Robb and Ruth Sutherland for future releases – we are working on some of our original songs.
Ruth and I penned this as a Christian response to living through the pandemic. It was part of Resound Worship‘s 12 Song Challenge. It is to the tune “Aberystwyth” which is very familiar to many congregations – you may know it as Jesus Lover of My Soul.
Ruth and I have been writing lots of new songs this summer. Yesterday she said “this tune reminds me of something”. When I pointed out what it reminded me of, we fell down a rabbit hole setting Last of the Summer Wine as a hymn tune. The best we came up with was a harvest hymn we found on the internet but we can’t find an author for it.
In the last year, Ruth and I have been providing music for Holy Nativity’s online services but there has been little in the way of “live” music. For last night’s Benediction at On Fire, we were able to do something together as Metanoia for a couple of songs. The rest are me and Ruth playing together. Check it out and see what you think.
