Songs for Worship

In this episode we discuss why is some music better suited for use in worship than others. We also learn the latin word "lorica" and share an arrangement of our theme song Be Thou My Vision. 

In this episode we look at four reasons why singing in our worship is important. I also share an arrangement of the familiar hymn "All Creatures of Our God and King", by St. Francis of Assisi.

Eric C. Rose and Jeff Koonce discuss the usefulness of hymns in worship, and Jeff's process for retuning old hymns. We also discuss the Hymn Collective, a collaborative community of hymn writers and musicians in Birmingham, AL striving to facilitate and promote the creation and use of modern and retuned hymns in the worship of the Church.

A graphic image of Christ's sacrifice on the cross for undeserving sinners, this hymn points us to the cross on this Good Friday.

With the Coronavirus dominating the news and so many things uncertain, "Great Is Thy Faithfulness" is a message we all need to embrace.

These words by Horatius Bonar, to the tune KINGSFOLD, paint us a beautiful picture of Christ and his call for sinners to come to him. For more information, visit me on the web at ericcrose.com.
