Keep Awake - Songs for Prayer and Worship
Product Description Perhaps for the first time, a collaboration between father and daughter on liturgical music. And what a concept: texts for teens written by a teen! Rory Cooney is the director of music at St. Anne Catholic Community in Barrington, Illinois. Claire Cooney, his daughter, has written four books, poetry, and lyrics, and has initiated a few musicals and a handful of plays. Together they have created a spirited and moving collection of on-the-edge Christian music. From the Artist My daughter Claire and I collaborated on these songs over a period of two years, from 1998-2000. They represent a fresh interpretation of ancient hope and longing that we find in the Scriptures, translated into language and music for today. These songs sing of a God who is alive in nature, in history, and in the witness of people who work tirelessly for equality and justice. We hope you'll give us a listen, and let the Word speak to you.
