Ambient electronica, chillout dance beats, ethereal vocals or occasionally harp. Feel free to livestream/record any of these in internet church services.
Abbess was the composer in residence for the Visions creative multimedia collective and church service in York from 1991-2010. She then went to work for Leeds Minster before moving South to Winchester Cathedral. Now she is working for the Transcendence Trust. A few years ago she added some free downloads of settings of ancient songs used in the mornng prayer liturgy. Abbess' music ranges from classically influenced chill-out pieces through trip hop to departures into the land of techno. Feel free to use the mixes and/or words in a non-profit church service situation, and let her know if they liked it!

Story behind the song
This song was written about 8 years ago now. Listening to a baby crying started me thinking about how it felt to be a child in God's arms. Since then I've remixed the track a couple of times and in this version Helen Turner has once again done guest vocals for me.
Lyrics
Wrapped in the oceans of your love Setting me free Held like a baby in your arms I trust you to be Abba, my father. I dance in the valleys that you made Warmed by your sun. Filled by the grain your hands have grown Washed by your rain. Abba, my father.
