Song Preparation, 4/4/2010
Song Preparation: I encourage you listen to these songs each week so that you are familiar with them by the time we sing on Sunday. I always find that becoming more familiar with the lyrics to a song gives me more freedom to be led by the Holy Spirit as I worship. We won’t play these song exactly as they sound below but this is a good start! I would encourage you to go to itunes or any other music download site and purchase these songs for your music library. That way you can spend more time listening to them and learning the lyrics!
Here is some scripture that goes well with the songs we will sing this Sunday. Christ is Risen: Luke 24:5-7; Happy Day: Philippians 4:4-5; How Great Thou Art: Psalm 145:3-4; Greater than we can Imagine: Psalm 145:2-3.
Songs:
We will also celebrate the risen Lord by saying this reading together.
This is the good news –
The grave is empty;
Christ is Risen.
Hallelujah!
This is the good news –
The light shines in the darkness,
And the darkness can never put it out.
Hallelujah!
This is the good news –
Once we were no people;
Now we are God’s people.
Hallelujah!
Christ is our peace,
The indestructible peace
We now share with each other.
Hallelujah!
The Lord is risen indeed! Hallelujah!
I look forward to worshipping with you on this Resurrection Sunday!
Ben
