MUSIC & PODCASTS
At St. Clement's, we love music! Here you can find out more about our worship music on a Sunday as well as original work from some of our talented songwriters.
You can also discover some excellent podcasts being created by members of our church family!
Music on Sundays
On a Sunday we seek to sing a mixture of traditional hymns and modern songs, striving to praise God in a style that is contemporary whilst also biblical in nature.
Check out this recording of Joy To The World, played by our band!
'Be filled with the spirit, addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with all your heart.'
Ephesians 5:19
Music on Sundays
On a Sunday we seek to sing a mixture of traditional hymns and modern songs, striving to praise God in a style that is contemporary whilst also biblical in nature.
In recent years, our music team have started to write and record original worship songs. The first of these, Jesus Be Praised, is a song born from our learning and experience as a church family going through great hardship. The hope is that it will encourage us, and others, to hold fast to God's goodness and to praise Jesus in all situations.

Songwriters
As well as collectively writing music for our church family, several of our musicians write music in their own right. You can check out some of their work below!
Sarah Beattie
Sarah is a singer-songwriter who writes songs that are inspired by her beliefs and experiences in the hope that they'll be useful for someone else!

Becky Higg
Becky's music contains both sighs of lament and songs of celebration - a notion of balance perfectly encapsulated by the beautiful words of Charles Spurgeon, "we have far more joys than troubles, so our songs should exceed our sighs."
One of her favourite things to do is to share a little hope and encouragement through story, conversation and song.

Brothers
Henry Alexander leads the worship team at St. Clement's. He and his brother Barnaby have written an album called 'Grace and Peace'. They were inspired by the New Testament book of Ephesians.

The Upper Room
Join Paul and Henry every Tuesday, as they chat about the Bible, theology and life. The guys discuss the current Sunday morning sermon series, answering questions from the church family and focusing in on cultural or theological topics from the passage. Each episode ends with a section called, ‘this time tomorrow’ helping us think specifically about how this teaching impacts our everyday lives. The Upper Room is also available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
Sermonise
Sermonise is a podcast where preachers talk about preaching. This is a podcast from Good News Broadcasting and is hosted by Tom Ward, a member at St Clement’s. In each episode, Tom invites a guest to talk about their experience of preaching, sermon prep secrets and personal challenges.
Whether or not you are a preacher yourself, you'll be fascinated to hear preachers from around the UK share the many and varied experiences and challenges of their roles, and their thoughts on the preaching in our churches today.
YouTube Series
True Stories of God's Faithfulness
During the Covid-19 lockdown, a variety of church members at St Clement's filmed short testimonies sharing a time when God had been working in their lives - we called this series 'The Lord Is On Your Side'.
The series is a real encouragement of God's faithfulness in times of both difficulty and joy. You can check out the playlist on our YouTube channel by clicking the button below.
