Unspeakable Grace – The Music of Graceful Passages by GARY MALKIN
 Unspeakable Grace features the music from Graceful Passages, without the words. Although Graceful Passages includes this disc, there may be times when the music alone is all that is needed- and when offering the music as a gift, this CD can serve as a convenient and intentional way of sharing the blessing of Graceful without the messages. Furthermore, the music without the words needn't be associated with impermanence or dying, loss or grief, but simply with the beauty and grace of living. Includes Benedictus,  a choral chant by Michael.Order Information
