Good/Friday and Easter Songs: Kevin

Posted by Kevin Larson on April 5th, 2006

Well, I started this discussion, so perhaps I should answer my own question:

Good Friday Songs (taken from our Good Friday gathering song list):
Thy Mercy My God is the Theme of My Song (Indelible Grace)
There is a Fountain Filled with Blood
Beautiful, Scandalous Night (great tune by Daugherty, Hindalong– “the Choir”)
Who Is This So Weak and Helpless? (Indelible Grace)
Sacred Head, Now Wounded
How Deep the Father’s Love for Us (Townend)
The Power of the Cross (Getty/Townend)
O Come and Mourn with Me Awhile (Indelible Grace)
Lift Up They Bleeding Hand (Indelible Grace)

(as you can tell we love the IGrace stuff! we may add a few more in here, as well)

Easter Songs (gathering not planned; incomplete list)
See What a Morning (Getty)
Christ the Lord is Risen Today (Wesley)
Beautiful Savior (Townend) (line: “you’re the risen One; heaven’s Champion”)
Jesus Is Lord (Getty)
In Christ Alone (Getty)
He Is Risen (Schumacher)

I am very encouraged about the increasing quality of great Easter hymns! Soli deo gloria!
