Recover Our Great
Christian Musical Heritage!

Our affections are shaped and molded by the music we sing and hear. Currently, the happy clappy Evangelical church is limited to a very small range of musical expression, and if our music does not train us to vigorously celebrate or to bitterly lament as we worship God, how will we and our children be prepared when great victories or great tragedies confront us?

Praise the Lord!
Sing to the Lord a new song,
And His praise in the assembly of saints.

Sale Ends December 7. All orders with Cantuses will be held and shipped in January.

How soon will my order ship?

Please note that if you order other books at the same time, we will HOLD your order until the Cantus arrives in January—so you'll want to place a separate order if you need the other items sooner."

  • Cantus 2020 contains at least one complete metrical setting of every Psalm (increased from 114 to 300)

  • More Service Music (increased from 28 to 42)
