from Coventry Cathedral in connection with the Bishop's 'Call to Mission' for the 50th Anniversary of the re-founding of the diocese.
Introduced by William Purcell.

Praise to the Lord, the almighty (Praxll Pietatis)
Rejoice, the Lord is King (Gopsal)
O holy Spirit, Lord of grace (Tallis)
I bind unto myself (St. Patricks Breast-plate)
The hymn to the Trinity (Alexander Grechaninov)
Once to every man and nation (Ton-y-Botel)
Just as I am (Saffron Walden)
Thou, whose almighty word (Moscow)
Blessing of Mission torches by The Bishop of Coventry
Forth in thy name (Song 34)

Fifty years ago, the ancient diocese of Coventry was re-founded, then divided from the diocese of Worcester. Tonight in Coventry Cathedral the climax of a year of celebration begins.
