Song Suggestions by Lectionary

Hello, or Welcome Back~

Although it snowed a bit this morning here, hints of spring are popping out daily. In the church year, we'll be moving from Epiphany into Lent, so we want to update our suggested list of songs.

First we continue to mention our new choir piece, She Poured the Perfume, which is for April 6th. The song recounts the beautiful Gospel story of Jesus being anointed with expensive perfume. Please note that the coordinating study is now posted, too!

NEW! Our setting of I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say is now available! Tied to some readings for March 23rd, it offers a gentle tune in a solo with guitar.

Another solo that suits March 23rd or March 30th, is our guitar arrangement of Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing.

For March 30th, we particularly suggest our musical telling of the Parable of the Prodigal Son, arranged for praise team. Check out The Younger Son.

Now, as I said earlier, Spring isn't bursting out here just yet. But, for many of you, it arrives much sooner. So, it might be time for you warmer musicians to view God Must Delight as Trees Leaf Out. It can be a solo or hymn.

Looking ahead to Holy Week, consider Song of John for Maundy Thursday, with its reference to Jesus washing his disciples' feet. It is a solo for baritone voice and guitar.

For late Saturday night "vigil"-type services or for sunrise services on Easter morning, take a look at On the Way, a solo in Mary Magdalene's voice as she trudges to Christ's tomb before dawn. 

May your Lent be meaningful, and God bless your Easter planning!
