There’s been a stack of CDs sitting on my desk for three weeks that I haven’t had a chance to even look at. This week is the first time I’ve felt like I’ve been able to take a breath and start to catch up on tasks. I actually got to listen to some music today and think about songs for the next few weeks. As I listened I realized something.
There’s is tons of great worship music.
There’s really no excuse for doing bad music in church. Perhaps back in the day there was limited selection - but now that’s not the case.
A few that pop out as stellar:
- Mighty to Save - Hillsong
- Majesty - Matt Redman
- All Because of Jesus - Steve Fee
- Bring me to Life - Bebo Norman
- Be Thou My Vision - Some guy with mad skills on the acoustic guitar playing with a Celtic kinda vibe and a fluteish instrument accompanying (Just a random mp3 left on my computer - but it rocks.)
- Holy Ground - Christopher Beatty and Geron Davis (Oh yeah you know I love the old school stuff)
We’re doing All Because of Jesus this weekend…and practicing it in 3 hours. Great song!
Then there’s
Everlasting
Praise Him in the Story
Worthy
Revelation Song.
Wow, I got to go and turn some music on!!!!
I absolutely love wroship music
I mean worship
Oooh, I bet that ‘flute-ish’ instrument was an Irish whistle.
Selah has a great version of “Be Thou My Vision” as well.
I love Majesty & Mighty to Save.
I’d add:
The Stand
Consuming Fire
Lead Me to the Cross
At the Cross (Hillsong)
How Can I Keep From Singing
We Fall Down
I’ll stop now, I could keep going…
At the Cross - that’s another great one.
Thanks for the kind words… and thanks for playing the song.
