Songs To Shake Us UpJohn Campbell John Campbell has written 200 innovative hymn texts that succeed in stirring and challenging us to address serious issues that affect church and society.

Quirky, distinctive and forthright, his lyrics don’t pull any punches.John has quite deliberately chosen well-known, congregation-friendly tunes, lowered to make them easily singable, so that the hymns can be sung immediately, with the focus on the words, not concentrating on learning a new tune.

There are just 15 tunes not usually found in a hymn book and these have all been recorded with their full lyrics on the accompanying CD. Also included is a CD-Rom of the complete texts of every hymn in the book for reproduction on service sheets.

John’s outstanding lyrics set us free to explore and express our faith and celebrate the love of life in all its fullness that lay at the heart of Jesus’ ministry.
