St Bart’s, Toowoomba has recorded a range of royalty-free classic hymns for parishes, ministries and individuals to use as resources, including ‘Amazing Grace’, ‘Great is Thy Faithfulness’, ‘Holy, Holy, Holy’, and many more

“The powerful tune has an energetic pulse and an irrepressible melody which reflects the sweeping quality of the text, invigorating and interpreting it with a sense of reflection and exciting reality,” says The Rev’d Canon Dr David Cole on this new Australian hymn, which is perfect for the forthcoming Pentecost Season
People from across our Diocesan community came together virtually this week in the lead up to Easter to celebrate the resurrection with a hymn commonly sung on Easter Sunday, ‘Thine be the Glory’. The virtual choir was coordinated by Resource Church, St Bart’s, Toowoomba

“St Bart’s invites you to come together as a community, joining in a virtual song of praise to celebrate Christ’s glorious resurrection on Easter Day, through a virtual choir,” says Assistant Minister at St Bart’s, Toowoomba, The Rev’d Michael Calder
“Remarkable songs such as these reveal the power of singing our praise to God, and how singing our faith engages – as nothing else can – our intellect, our hearts, and our sense of mission, energising us for Christian life and action,” says The Rev’d Canon Dr David Cole
“This is not to say that we do not have a huge repository of powerful faith-filled lyrics in the canon of hymns – we do – but pop music at times can give even hymn lyrics a run for their money,” says Bishop John Roundhill in his homage to two great songs from 1970, while also asking us “What great rock, pop or folk songs from 1970 inspire you in your faith and mission and why?”
