Reflection in words & music – Sunday 20th July 2025

Join The Revd Steve Morris, Associate Priest of St Bride's, and St Bride's Choir for this week's reflection in words and music.

This week's reflection begins in joyous mood with a setting of the Gloria by Jonathan Dove from his 'Missa brevis' – commissioned by the Cathedral Organists' Association in 2009. It is a spirited, lively dance, rhythmically reminiscent of Stravinsky.

Our associate priest, Steve Morris, begins his reflection with the admission that he is from a family of people not very good at sitting still.

We end with the hymn "Teach me, my God and King" – words by the great 17th century English priest and poet, George Herbert.

A new episode of this online act of worship is released every Sunday morning.
