Songs We Use In Worship
October 17, 2009
A while back, I posted about the strategy we use in choosing songs for our worship service. Now, thanks to a CCLI reporting period that just ended, I’m able to tell you exactly what songs we’ve used at the Wade Center lately! Check it out, and let me know what you think of the list. (This list doesn’t include any public domain hymns or original songs.)

So there you have it! I know, I know. For some people, the songs are too old. For some people, the songs are too new. But that’s exactly the point.
While we’re not trying to be everything to everyone, we are: 1) Balancing the styles of our younger and older congregants. 2) Picking meaty songs with good melodies and great lyrics, regardless of their age (we’ve found most of these come from EMI-CMG). 3) Selecting songs which illustrate the topic of the sermon well to help make the service unified and memorable.
