Psalm / Hymn Singalong for personal worship

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

Christian Hymns: Jesus, Thy Blood and Righteousness; The Church’s One Foundation; Guitarist Brian Cochran

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….

Jehovah Jesus – Rich Moore Christian Music

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.”

Behold, I am Coming Quickly! – Rich Moore / Scripture Song / Lyrics

The Christian music in this post is based on Revlation 3:10-13; and Isaiah 41:10. Much Christian music these days is based on the opinions of the artists and not on real Bible verses. God the Holy Spirit saves people via scripture, not opinions of man. Also, if you use Christian music to stir up your heart for Bible study or personal worship, then hearing scripture as you listen has to be more spiritually beneficial. Additionally, if you grew up listening to rock music from the baby boomer generation, then you will like the music in this video.

Psalm 23 Sung By Aileen Gilchrist

The 5-minute video of this post is the 23rd Psalm sung by Aileen Gilchrist. I linked this playlist, from the YouTube site, Christian Sermons and Audio Books, it has 10 other videos which are apparently the most popular videos on his site; that list includes music and sermons.

I Must Tell Jesus – Song of Encouragement To Prayer

This post contains two versions of the song, “I must tell Jesus all of my trials….” My next post is about the Lord’s prayer and I thought about this song, which I find to be a great encouragement towards prayer. I purchased the song after hearing it on Family Radio a few times because I thought it such a wonderful encouragement to pray, hopefully you will find it useful

I Have Loved You, A Michael Joncas Song Based on Jeremiah 31:3b

This Michael Joncas song is based on part of the following verse:  Jeremiah 31:3 the LORD appeared to hima from far away. I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you.  This chapter is filled with love and hope which the Lord planned to give them when He brought them back to their land, after they have endured the suffering of exile for 70 years for their great sins. This song is being posted as an example of biblically inspired Christian music that is performed reverently, such that it inspires towards godliness

On Eagle’s Wings, A Song By Michael Joncas

This post contains two songs composed by Michael Joncas, On Eagle’s Wings, and Shelter Me. The latter was recently written for aid during the Covid-19 pandemic. Spiritu performed Shelter Me and their video appears like a zoom conference. I love Michael Joncas’s song writing because it is rich with scripture words and concepts and it is always performed in a reverent manner, inspiring godliness; since there are so many Christian musicians out there today that write secular lyrics, I am presenting these songs as a biblical alternative to aid in worship
