Description of the 16 Songs at "The Word"

If you haven’t missed 1 Sunday in the last year, you have already heard 11 of the 16 songs we will be leading at “The Word.” As we went through different studies at the church, we have introduced these songs along the way. Hopefully, that will translate into you singing out tonight and Saturday!

That also means that you have not heard 5 of the songs. These are actually 5 of my favorite songs on the project but they just haven’t fit with what we teach on Sundays so we haven’t introduced them yet. They are:

5 Songs You Haven’t Heard Yet

The Ten Commandments (It is what it sounds like. The commandments are such a huge part of the entire canon of Scripture, we wrote a song to communicate the Law.)
Return to Me (This is a collection of phrases from the prophets speaking on behalf of God to woo Israel back to himself before it was too late.)
How Long, O LORD? (The people did not heed the prophets’ warning and God send them to exile. Had God forgotten about them? How long must they wait for him to come back?)
Fear Not (Rescue has come. Jesus invaded Earth.)
Faithful and True (We sing Revelation. Jesus is coming back. All things will be restored.)

I can’t wait for you to hear them and sing along with them. Pray these truths help you remember and understand God’s Word as we sing them tonight and Saturday (Col. 3:16).

We have 16 original songs we have composed for this project. 8 Old Testament songs plus 8 New Testament songs equal 1 message of reconciliation.
