Songs We Sing (11.15.2009)

We occasionally get asked what this or that song was after services. So, I thought I'd provide a small service to CCJ'ers and the general lurkers out there. I'll list each song and give you the original artist and/or songwriter and a few details. If you'd like to purchase the original song, I suggest using iTunes or Amazon's MP3 Store.

For the services of November 15, 2009, we sang:

Be Glorified
Written by Chris Tomlin, Jesse Reeves, Louie Giglio, 1999. We first learned this one from one of those compilation worship albums several years back (I think Tim Hughes sang the version we do). A nice song of prayer that God would be glorified through us.

The Hand That Holds The World
Written by Jason Ingram, Jon Neufeld, Matt Bronleewe, Tim Neufeld, 2006. Originally recorded by Starfield (you can buy their version here).

Hosanna
Written by Brooke Fraser, 2006. Hillsong originally did this one but I like the Christy Nockels version (found here). Christy Nockels can flat-out sing.

All Creatures Of Our God And King
Written by Francis of Assisi, circa 1225 (this is REALLY old) :-)
Arrangement by David Crowder, 2002. This song really says it all. "Alleluia" (Praise be to God!). Everything praises Him.

Come Thou Fount
Written by Robert Robinson, 1758. Probably my favorite hymn ever. "Jesus sought me when a stranger ..."

Let God Arise
Written by Chris Tomlin, Ed Cash, Jesse Reeves, 2006. This song can be found on Chris Tomlin's 2006 album "See The Morning."
