There is something so powerful about singing out truth. It has a way of sticking with you.
Sadly, this year there is no CD, but the worship leader graciously emailed me the lyrics for the songs that we’ll be singing in a few weeks. Several of the songs are the same as last year. For the rest, we’ll be pulling them up on youtube and hopefully also downloading the songs and making our own cd (if this non-techie can figure that out).
We’re looking forward to filling our minds with these beautiful lyrics as anticipation builds for this exciting celebration!!!
What songs do you sing around this time of year? On the docket for us this Easter Sunday are In Christ Alone, There is a Redeemer (linked to the original Keith Green version), Stronger, Christ the Lord is Risen Today, Happy Day (an absolute favorite over here), Forever Reign, Mighty to Save and Sing to the King.
There are some more great old hymns
“Christ Arose”
“Christ the Lord Is Risen Today”
“He Lives”
“The Strife Is O’er”
“Blessed Redeemer”
You guys so great with your boys. I know that they know exactly what the story is about. I’m excited because Kayla is going to the first performance of our Easter Pageant. Gets to see it. And I can hardly wait for her to share with us what she thinks. Grandma Olson is sending her an Easter dress. I am thankful that she likes going to children’s church & Sunday school.
Love the music choices Heather! I will be teaching these to my girls also! Thank you for sharing!
Now that is an absolute favorite Easter song. It would be so amazing to sing that with a couple hundred other people, wouldn’t it?!?!?!?
Don’t forget about Keith Green’s Easter Song!!!
