Last night I was picked up for church. My lift was significantly late. For the 20 minutes that I stood on the side of the road I was disappointed. Why? Because I would miss the first half of songs at church. While waiting I was able to reflect on how much I love CCEC nite church music. Dan has done a great job over the last year or so in developing the team.
The two songs that I was able to sing were fantastic. We were taught Let your kingdom come from Sovereign Grace’s Valley of Vision CD (this CD is gold… get it!). We’ve played this at morning church a bunch of times – but this was the first time at nite – and it was fantastic. The other song was Crown him with many crowns. In my opinion this is the best hymn re-write. Dan put new music to it last year.
Our nite church music is in my opinion some of the best quality music around. I used to enjoy the quality at Katoomba Christian Conventions more than church but that has now changed. KCC gear hasn’t become worse – just ours has become better.
So if you’re in the music crew at church and you’re reading this: be encouraged to keep making fine music.
Question: Do you love your church music? Or just tolerate it?
i love our church music! (ccec) we are blessed to have the music team that we do. Hey Dave.
hey jon.
thanks for the comment.
how is your blog going? i left some comments the other day.
we need to get tim to start one.
peaceout
Hey Dave thankyou as well for your comments, ill get on Tims case re blog, also i will call you tonight re Aarons bbq.
I agree that Valley of Vision is gold! I just bought it on iTunes and it has now replaced U2 as my “I can’t stop playing this on my iPod” album!! Fantastic in every respect – lyrically, doctrinally emotionally, musically, production values. All top notch.
hey andy,
kanye west recently replace valley of vision as that “can’t stop playing” cd.
but he will be demoted again soon.
what’s your current favourite?
mine is still the opener – valley of vision – it’s so rich – and it’s a beautiful song.
