Song Selections - week of 11.28.04

Question:
This is the week when we are focusing on persecution, so everything is different. We are arranging all the chairs in a circular spiral pattern (we've done it before, it's really cool), with candles. We are confiscating everyone's Bibles.
We are also having a small worship band - 2 acoustics, a keyboard, and congas. During the worship songs, on the screen, there will be a scrolling list of persecuted countries.

MESSAGE (:30)
This will be a time when the senior pastor will talk about the fact that most persecuted Christians do not have a Bible; they rely on what they have memorized from a couple of pages of Scripture they have managed to collect. He will ask for whoever has some Scripture memorized, to say it out loud. If there are a lot of people who do it, he will encourage. If not, then he will exhort. (what a great word )

The after-service ended up being a blend of Jesus, Be the Center and Prepare the Way. It just happened. Had an amazing time in God's presence...

Answer:
It's youth emphasis again this week, and so the youth band is leading the service. We're making it yet more "youthier" this week; the electric guitar player is using quite a lot of effects. Everything from an auto-wah, to a chorus, flanger, distortion, OD, delay, and this really really wierd effect that I'm not even going to begin to explain.
Anyways..blah...here's the list:
Times of Refreshing
Victory in Jesus
Days of Elijah
Oh Our Lord and King
Come Thou Fount
How Great Thou Art
Unfailing Love (from Chris Tomlin's new "Arriving"...we're introducing it this week)
Be Lifted Up/Here I Am To Worship
You Alone
Befriended
How Great is Our God (also from Arriving, but we've already done this one a number of times)
We're doing 2 of my favorite hymns this week; Come Thou Fount and How Great Thou Art.

Nice Agrimes
We did Come thou Fount and Days of Elijah this morning. We also did In Christ Alone.

Our Music Pastor gave the sermon this morning, so, it was a bit more music oriented than usual although it followed the same flow.
~P&W~
All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name (vs. 1,4) - G
All the Power You Need - G
All Things are Possible - C/D
~First Two Points of The Sermon~
Hallelujah, What a Savior - G/A
Draw Me Close - A
Hallelujah... Reprise - A
~Sermon~
~Invitation~
With All I Am - D
~Offering~
Some Phillips, Craig and Dean song that I don't know that title of. - CD
~Closing~
All Things are Possible - C/D
Answer:
Let's see...
We're a non-denominational, charismatic church that observes Advent, so the list was...
O Come All Ye Faithful
Shout Joyfully
Joy to the World
Lord Reign in Me
Come Thou Long Expected Jesus
O Come Let Us Adore Him
I think that covers it, if I didn't miss any... it was an unusually longer set.
