"No big production values. Just me and my guitar. Hope you like it" - Stephen
Stephen was the lead tenor in several high profile choirs and spent a decade as the cantor at St. James' Cathedral, Toronto where he met many celebrities including Desmond Tutu, Queen Elizabeth, King Charles and other members of the royal family.
He'll regularly be singing Victorian/Edwardian era songs (mid 1800's to early 1900's) at the Ken Seiling Waterloo Region Museum's Doon Heritage Village starting in summer 2026.
THE CHURCH
(Guitar intro from Nunc Dimmittis by Herberty Howells)
They built a church in days gone by,
They built it on a hill,
With stones and bricks and wooden floors,
A work of common will.
The pews were carved by carpenters,
The altar made with care,
They marked it with a cross of brass,
And people gathered there.
Holy, holy, holy, holy.
The centre of community,
The place where people meet,
To give the gift of charity,
To those who are in need.
And every Sunday morning,
Their offering they will bring,
They''ll greet their neighbours, pray their prayers,
And all together sing.
Holy, holy, holy, holy.
