Garth Hewitt

Singer, songwriter and author Garth Hewitt has been recording songs for nearly 40 years, and has released over 40 albums. Garth’s music and writings reflect a spirituality of hope and a simple way of life that rejects violence and affirms equality and human rights.

Garth's rootsy storytelling songs are influenced by country, folk and blues and in 1988 Garth received the International Artist Award from the Gospel Music Association in Nashville. In the past nearly 40 years Garth's songs have been covered by other artists including Sir Cliff Richard, who sang Garth's song, “A World of Difference” at Live Aid, and also recorded “Under the Influence (Now you see me…. now you don't)”. A tribute album to Garth’s songwriting was also released in 2011, by other artists. Martyn Joseph covers “When Johnny Cash sang Man in black”, Reem Kelani “O Palestine”, Stu G (from Delirious?) Dance on Injustice, Paul Field “Under the Influence” and many more.

Garth is the Guild Vicar of All Hallows on the Wall in the City of London - a centre for organisations involved in issues of justice and art. He is also an honorary Canon of St George's Cathedral, Jerusalem. In 2006 he was given special creditation by the House of Poets in Ramallah, West Bank for his 'positive attitude towards the Palestinian people and their struggle towards freedom and justice'. He is also a Patron of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign.

The recently rediscovered National Chartist Hymn Book has powerful and poetic lyrics with a spirituality committed to social justice.Garth takes these passionate hymns and puts tunes to them (the hymn book only had lyrics) to bring alive these fascinating songs that, though written about the events of 1845, seem to have a remarkable relevance to our own society.They are rousing and thoughtful songs which echo with words such as Raise! Raise the cry! Let all respond; 'Justice, and pure and equal laws.' Garth's hope is that this revival of hymns from the Chartist Movement will bring alive these poetic and challenging hymns for a new generation.ContentsHail, glorious morn!Assembled 'neath thy broad blue skyDaily breadSons of povertyFor every thing a timeMen of EnglandLo, in thy nameHark, I hearHow longGod of the poor!Great God!Source of good

The Christian faith impels us to seek justice - we see this especially in Jesus' ministry, and in the message of the prophets and so it is very clear that God loves justice. It is an integral part of the gospel and this is what Jesus did - ministering to the people that were marginalised and oppressed - ministering to the people that didn't count in his time.'ContentsFeast your mind on what is pureHe broke the rulesHappy to shareJustice like a riverOne of us, flesh and bloodYou're the oneWe've silenced the prophetsWe hear your cry, LordBe the hands of JesusTeach us how to walkWe will pray for you, sisterWe saw beauty in the ashesIf we have never soughtLet the world be changed

A comprehensive introduction to Christianity and Christian faith. The title of this book is intentionally and provocatively ambiguous. Faith is more than matters of fact. It involves relationship and trust, a belief in and not simply a belief that. For those who are interested in matters of faith, or those just enquiring, here is a valuable introduction to all aspects of Christianity and Christian faith in a brief and accessible form. You'll find short but informative articles written by a wide range of authors who bring their experience and expertise from different denominations and traditions, giving richness to what is offered here. Whether it is matters of information or a matter of people's relationships with God and one another, it remains true that faith matters.
