False Christian teachings, trends….
This post contains a 20-minute music video. I is a sampling of 5 songs from Marty Goetz and his orchestra, from his album, Psalm Enchanted Evening: a Hebrew chant; Lord our Lord (on Psalm 8); Psalm 23; Prince of Peace (on Isaiah 9:6; about his conversion to Christ and his Jewish heritage); We Being Many (on Romans 12:5, sang with his wife and young daughter).
I found the following song while I was searching the video page of a new YouTube site, StrangeLyrics. I was deeply moved by the lyrics, vocals and guitar; this is a wonderful song for preparing one’s heart to pray and read God’s word. The site has over 350 videos seemingly consisting of hymns and contemporary Christian music. If you like to sing along with Christian music, check out the site.
This post contains a hymn sung by Brian Cochran. Lyrics accompany the song so that you can sing along. HYMN: Day by Day and with each passing moment. It contains some very encouraging lyrics about dealing with trials. There are several other hymns by him in the category of Christian Music.
The following song, Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me, from the Trinity Psalter Hymnal, is sung by Brian Cochran. It is from his YouTube site Brian Cochran. Lyrics are pasted in below the song so that you can also sing along. I find it easier to sing along when someone else is singing, as though I were at church, singing along with the congregation. This song is being posted because it fits well with the topic being explained by Pastor Hines, Romans 1.
The following 1-minute video by Ligonier Ministries is about Jesus doing what is indicated in the following verse: Matthew 7:6 “Do not give dogs what is holy, and do not throw your pearls before pigs, lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you.”
Luke Powell explains the history of the hymn, Jesus lover of my soul, by Charles Wesley, then he performs it on the piano. Lyrics were also provided by Luke, for those who would like to sing along.
Below you will find Spurgeon’s morning thoughts followed by the hymn he cited as he closed those thoughts: My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less. The hymn is a video by Brian Cochran, he sings the song while playing guitar; lyrics are pasted in for those who might want to sing along. I find it easy to sing along with his songs, it is like being in church and singing along with the congregation. Spurgeon’s evening thoughts follow hymn and lyrics.
The purpose of this post is to provide music and singing for leading personal worship. I doubt if I’m the only worshiper who cannot carry a tune, even when I know the lyrics. Herein, the lyrics are below the music video so that readers might sing along with Brian Cochran as he plays his guitar and sings. It is like being in church and singing with the congregation and the pianist. Herein: Psalm 51C, about confessing sin; two hymns to help the worshiper consider the atoning work of Christ; and one hymn to help one consider the covenant God made with Abraham from which His redemptive work flowed
This post contains two Christian Hymns from the Trinity Hymnal: Jesus, Thy Blood and Righteousness; and The Church’s One Foundation. Lyrics are below each music video. Singing and guitar by Brian Cochran, who created the videos for his YouTube site. On Sunday, May 28, the pastor of the church I attend used the first hymn as part of our morning worship; the lyrics of this hymn are so wonderful, I was moved to find that version of it on YouTube and post it for others to hear. Lyrics have been posted so that readers might sing along; might use these as part of family worship….
The Christian song in this post is based on a William Cowper poem. From the video narrative: “Cowper became close friends with the Evangelical clergyman John Newton; together they co-authored the Olney Hymns, which was first published in 1779 and included Newton’s famous hymn “Amazing Grace.” Of the 68 hymns Cowper wrote, “Oh for a closer walk with God” and “God moves in a mysterious way” are the most well known.”
