| Lord, teach us to seek you,
And reveal yourself to us as we seek you. For we cannot seek you unless first you teach us. Amen. |

The Rev’d Canon Jeremy Davies graduated in English and Theology at Cambridge University where he was a choral scholar at Corpus Christi College. After a curacy in the East End of London Jeremy spent eleven years as a university chaplain, first at Queen Mary, University of London, and then as Senior Chaplain to Cardiff University and the Polytechnic of Wales. In 1985 he became Canon Precentor of Salisbury Cathedral – a post which he held for over twenty-six years until his retirement in 2012. He is well known as a preacher, hymn-writer, and script writer; broadcaster, spiritual director and lecturer (especially on Anglican spirituality, apologetics and art and theology). He conducts retreats and quiet days, and leads pilgrimages in this country and abroad. In 2015 he will be conducting Holy Week in a parish in St Louis, Missouri. His involvement in cathedral liturgy and music has helped to equip him to advise churches and congregations with their musical as well as their liturgical formation, and he is a specialist on the Sarum Use and the use of plainchant. His book In Season and Out of Season on the art of sermon creation was published in 2014 by Canterbury Press. He has directed The Way of the Cross throughout the UK, and has been consultant to many other productions of this large-scale Passion pageant including the Winchester Passion. He continues to be a member of the Cathedrals Fabric Commission for England, and a Trustee of Anglican Catholic Future.
