Singing in Easter!

We are counting down the days until Resurrection weekend!!!

As you all know, we love taking time to prepare for Easter.  Last year, our church put together an Easter choir and handed out cd's of the music line-up for the Easter morning service.  We were able to get a hold of an extra copy and all enjoyed learning the songs and allowing our time in the car to serve as preparation time for this special service.  Hearing them belt out the songs that morning under the bright spring sun was incredibly sweet!  It has been the most requested cd in our home.

There is something so powerful about singing out truth.  It has a way of sticking with you.

Sadly, this year there is no CD, but the worship leader graciously emailed me the lyrics for the songs that we'll be singing in a few weeks.  Several of the songs are the same as last year.  For the rest, we'll be pulling them up on youtube and hopefully also downloading the songs and making our own cd (if this non-techie can figure that out).

We're looking forward to filling our minds with these beautiful lyrics as anticipation builds for this exciting celebration!!!

What songs do you sing around this time of year?  On the docket for us this Easter Sunday are In Christ Alone, There is a Redeemer (linked to the original Keith Green version), Stronger, Christ the Lord is Risen Today, Happy Day (an absolute favorite over here), Forever Reign, Mighty to Save and Sing to the King.
