Founded in 1970 by a group of enthusiastic amateur singers, our repertoire ranges from the great classical choral works to modern contemporary pieces. Under the skilled direction of Howard Kane, who was appointed musical director in 2008, and ably assisted by Robert Woods the choir has grown in size and reputation. Rehearsals Monday nights are rehearsal nights which are held in Frodsham Methodist Church, Kingsley Rd, WA6 6BA from 7.30pm to 9.30pm. New members are welcome to come along and give us a try. We rehearse from September through to July for our four main concerts, which are held in Frodsham, and also take our music to other venues in the area. Groups of singers from within the choir are available to sing at weddings and the choir regularly puts on events to raise money for local charities.  less

Sing Me to Heaven Text by Jane Griner In My heart's sequestered chambers lie truths stripped of poets' gloss Words alone are vain and vacant, and My heart is mute In response to aching silence, memory summons half-heard voices And My soul finds primal eloquence, and wraps me in song If you would comfort me, sing me a lullaby If you would win My heart, sing me a Love song If you would mourn me and bring me to God, sing me a requiem, sing me to Heaven Touch in me all Love and passion, pain and pleasure Touch in me grief and comfort, Love and passion, pain and pleasure Sing me a lullaby, a Love song, a requiem Love me, comfort me, bring me to God Sing me a Love song, sing me to Heaven  less

He restores My soul and makes me walk within the paths of righteousness for His name's sake Yea, though I walk in death's dark vale yet I will fear no evil for you are with me your rod and your staff comfort me still you have furnished My table in the presence of My foes My head you anoint with oil and My cup overflows Goodness and mercy all My life shall surely follow me and My dwelling place shall be in God's house evermore.  less

An earthly tree a heavenly fruit it bear, A case of clay contained a crown immortal. A crown of crowns, a King whose cost and care Redeemed poor man, whose race before was thrall To death, to doom, to pains of everlasting, By His sweet death, scorns, stripes, and often fasting. A star above the stars, a sun of light, Whose blessed beams this wretched earth bespread With hope of heaven and of God's Son the sight, Which in our flesh and sinful soul lay dead. O faith, O hope, O joys renowned for ever, O lively life that deathless shall persevere. Then let us sing the lullabys of sleep To this sweet babe, born to awake us all From drowsy sin that made old Adam weep, And by his fault gave to mankind the fall. For lo! this day, the birth day, day of days, Summons our songs to give Him laud and praise.  less
