Amazing Grace – One Of The Best Worship Songs

Tom — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 23:15:47 +0000

For a long time I have been thinking which is my favorite worship song. Many times I asked my self which worship song would I choose if I had to pick only one. Though this seems easy at first it turned out to be quite a problem as there are many great Christian worship songs that I absolutely love to listen over and over again.

Well after a short period of time I have decided that my favorite worship song of all times is Amazing Grace, this song always makes me happy and brings a bright light and hope into my life. Perhaps some of you will say that this song is overrated and quite popularized in the Western society, but I do not care for such observations, as long as the song makes me feel good I will love to listen to it.

Listen to this great worship song – Amazing Grace performed by Elvis Presley

Amazing Grace on Wikipedia:
“Amazing Grace” is a Christian hymn written by English Anglican clergyman and poet John Newton (1725–1807) and published in 1779. With a message that forgiveness and redemption is possible regardless of the sins people commit and that the soul can be delivered from despair through the mercy of God, “Amazing Grace” is one of the most recognized songs in the English-speaking world.

What about you? Which worship song is your favorite?

Black Praise And Worship Songs

I hope that I do not offend anyone with the title of this post, but I am sure everyone knows what I am talking about. I am heading to America and Canada for 2 months shortly and love the idea of visiting an African-American Church and experiencing black praise and worship songs!

This style of Christian worship music has been portrayed in many Hollywood movies, with Sister Act probably being the most popular, but the energy and excitement that they show is just so contagious. Sometimes I think Pentecostal churches could still learn a lot from these churches. While I think that Pentecostal worship is out going to a degree, a lot of worshippers are still very restricted, but when you watch black praise and worship songs being played, you see everyone dancing and clapping and just being joyful in God’s presence. And that is what worship is all about!

So find your favorite black worship song and send it too me. I will publish a list of the best black worship songs soon.

Nigerian Worship Songs

I absolutely love Christian worship songs! And while searching the internet today I just happened to stumble across some Nigerian worship songs which I thought I would share with you (don’t worry, they are in english).

Nigerian Praise And Worship Songs

As I read over the lyrics of their songs, the thing I found I loved most about them, was their simple lyrics. They didn’t try to be all fancy and theological. Instead the just hit simple biblical truths. Here are some examples:

My God Is A Miracle God

My God is a Miracle God (2x)

He has never failed,
He will never fail.
He will do what He says He will do,
He will do what He promised to do.

Come And See The Lord Is Good

Come and see the Lord is good (2x)
There is nothing He can not do
Come and see the Lord is good.

He gave me victory
He gave me peace of mind
There is nothing He can not do
I have seen Lord is good

Oh, What A Wonderful, Wonderful Day

Oh what a wonderful, wonderful day,
A day I will never forget,
After I’d wandered in darkness away,
Jesus my Saviour I met.
Oh what a tender compassionate friend,
He met the needs of my heart
Shadows dispelling, with joy I am telling
He made all the darkness depart.

Heaven came down and glory filled my soul
When at the cross, my Saviour made me whole
My sins were washed away, and my night was turned to day
Heaven came down and glory filled my soul (3x)

I don’t know about you, but these Nigerian worship songs remind me of the passage in Matthew:

Then he said, “I tell you with certainty, unless you change and become like little children, you will never get into the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18:3 – NIV

Do you think that we some times overcomplicate our worship to God? Have you ever noticed how children seem to be aware of so much more of what is going on around them than adults? Maybe in our business we get distracted. Maybe in our desire to be seen as knowledgeable we miss the child-like spirit that God so desires.

Keep following my Blog I will try to update it regularly with other Nigerian and Black Worship Songs.

Cheap Christian Music

Everyone is always looking for ways to get things as cheap as possible. So it doesn’t surprise me that you are looking for cheap Christian music.

Let me start off by saying that cheap Christian music should never mean illegally downloaded Christian music. Firstly, it is against the law, and as Christians we should obey the laws of the land, and secondly, the artists have worked hard to produce these songs and deserve to be paid for their work.

CHEAP CHRISTIAN MUSIC

So where do you find it? Online.

Prices are constantly changing, so although one place may be the cheapest at the moment, that doesn’t mean that next month we wont see another online retailer selling cheap Christian music even cheaper. That is why before I buy Christian worship songs I always do a google search to make sure I am definitely getting the cheapest price. A few retailers that I would recommend would definitely be iTunes and Amazons – you will usually find their prices to be great. When it comes to cheap Christian music you have to just see what you can find. There is no one stop shop for the cheapest Christian music.
