Mary Rose Jensen

Mary Rose Jensen began writing songs for the children’s choir she directed at church when her own two daughters were toddlers.  In 1991, she and her husband, Mark Jensen, established Garden Rose Music to publish Songs of Joy, a print and recorded music project designed to teach children the basics of the Christian faith.  Psalm 117 is included in “Songs of Joy.”

Jensen’s hymns can be found in Celebrating Grace, a hymnal published by Mercer University Press in 2010 and in Singing the Faith, the 2011 Methodist UK Hymnal. Her hymns and other music may be found on the Garden Rose Music web site. They are also on Score Exchange: https://www.scoreexchange.com/profiles/maryrosejensen
