Everyone can name a Christmas carol or two, but what about Easter songs? Can you sing any that aren’t cute children’s songs about the Easter Bunny? We’ve found a few with powerful lyrics that will lead you in expressing your joyful worship of the risen Lord.
Music can be an uplifting part of your prayer time. It has the ability to make words come alive in our hearts and to stir our soul.
St. Augustine told us that when we sing, we pray twice. Take time to think about the lyrics and sing them as a prayer to God. Find a picture of Jesus or a crucifix to gaze upon as you sing. If your feet start tapping, let your whole being worship the Lord!
