Thanks to a close friend of mine Alicia years ago I was introduced to the music of Martha Munizzi. She is a wonderful female performance and this song really speaks to me. Enjoy!
2. Basic Instructions - Burlap to Cashmere
I have always enjoyed the song "Basic Instructions". It really touches the heart and what the Bible is about.
3. Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone) - Chris Tomlin
A few years ago I traveled with a group from the ABS to a church in New Caney. We sang this song at that church and it really resonates with me. I really enjoy it.
4. I Can Only Imagine - MercyMe
This song has always held a special place in my heart but never so much as a couple of weeks ago as I got to witness three men whom I have grown close to as their teacher graduate from Christian men's job corps. Now this song is even more special. Also I got to see this band live years ago before I even realized who they were at a worship event that used to take place at first Baptist church in Nacogdoches called Great Escape. They are really awesome God led band.
5. There's A Stirring - Freed Hardeman University Acapella
This song has been such a blessing. Over the years. I first heard/sang this song through the yellow house (church of Christ student center) at SFASU in Nacogdoches. I could have shared a version sung by Mercy Me but I am trying to make the limit to one song per artist on the list. Plus there is just something about the acapella version of this song, especially when sung by a choir. It was one of if not the most uplifting song I remember singing at the yellow house. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.
6. Never Would Of Made It - Marvin Sapp
Years ago a coworker of mine had this song as her ringtone. I really liked the song and it speaks the truth. I never would have made it without God. Enjoy!
7. One Time - Earthsuit
This song has a different sound to it but I really enjoy it. I first heard of this song through a friend of mine named Jeremy through the Yellow House. He gave me a CD with a few of their songs on it and I liked it. I hope you enjoy it as well.
8. Breathe - Michael W Smith
This is such a powerful worship song. He is the air that we breathe. He is out everything. Just close your eyes and focus on the words as you listen to todays song. God bless!
9. 100 - Sho Braka
I discovered this song a few months back while listening to Pandora Radio. I really like the message. We have to keep it 100 with Jesus in our walk. Does that mean we are going to be perfect? By no means, but when we do make a mistake admit it to God. Tell him you're sorry and will try your best to not make the same mistake again. Enjoy!
10. I Wanna Be Moved - Ginny Owens
My sister and I went and saw this wonderful woman of God live in concert over ten years ago. In case you didn't know Ginny Owens is a blind Christian Artist. Her music and message has touched many. If you have a chance Google Ginny's Story on A Night In Rockettown CD. I really enjoy this song and it's message. We should all want to be moved. Enjoy!
11. Oh Happy Day - Sister Act 2
I really enjoy this song, especially this version from the movie Sister Act 2. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.
12. The Only Thing I Need - 4Him
So many times we focus on getting the next thing, as Rich Mullens would say everybody says they need just one thing when what they really mean is they need just one thing more. But the Bible tells us that where we store up our treasures there our heart is. I'm guilty of it too trust me. Today's song shares with us that as Christians the only thing we need we already have. Remember that today as you go about your business. God bless.
13. We Are One In The Spirit - Carolyn Arends
I have heard this song many times over the last several years and it really embodies the message of the ministry. Be we Methodists, baptist, Pentecostal, church of Christ, Assembly of God, or whatever denomination we want to claim we are all Christians and called to live one another if you are a believer. We are first and foremost Christians. I was listening to a sermon by the man who used to be the full time pastor years ago at Woodland Christian church and he was talking about a seminar he had went to where Max Lucado was speaking. Max asked everyone on the count of three to yell out what denomination or church they belonged to and when they did it sounded like a loud mess, you couldn't understand anything anybody said. Then on the count of three Max said for everyone to yell out the name of whom they followed, the name of whom died for their sins. Well on the count of three there was an amazing boom of the name of Jesus. Let us not forget that. We all serve the same king. God bless you all and remember we are all one in the spirit and in the love.
For a few years now I have known about a podcast called the Daily Audio Bible. I tried years ago to listen to it but got distracted a few months in. This year I have been able to be faithful to stay caught up and am hoping to make it all the way through. This is a podcast that if you listen for a full year will take you through the entire Bible. You can find more information at www.dailyaudiobible.com. Anyways the singer of this song today is Jill Parr who is Brian Harden's wife. Brian Harden is the creator and reader of the Daily Audio Bible podcast. This is the third album that Jill has released and the first in ten years. Today is the release of her album. I have heard this song before and it is very moving. He is a good good father. Even when we struggle he cares for us. I thought it only appropriate to share this song today as today is the release of the album. Enjoy!
And if you can please check out Jill's complete album. You can find it on iTunes or Spotify or wherever you get your music from. I personally am listening to it on Deezer.
15. Redeemed - Big Daddy Weave
This has always been one of my favorite Woship songs. It really helps you to focus on God and forget the troubles of this world if only for a short while. Enjoy!
(Originally written at 4 A.M.) Good morning. Yes I am awake by this time every morning. These are the hours I work. I used to joke when I would have to be up early early like this that I was waking up before a God but that's not true. God is always awake and watching over his children. Let us worship him today and sing "blessed be your name". Have a great day!
When I think about Chris Rice, the first song I think about is "Cartoons". If you have a chance I suggest you google it. That was the song I was going to share as number 19 but then I listened to this song and felt lead to share it instead. It has a great message and sound to it. I hope you enjoy "Untitled Hymn: Come To Jesus" as much as I do.
20. Shine - newsboys
For the last track of volume 2 of the SM4JC playlist I leave you with "Shine" from the newsboys. May you all shine before God and before all your fellow people. Have a great day!
I would like to share this song by a popular secular group Aerosmith as the bonus track of volume 2 of the SM4JC playlist. I remember singing a similar version at the yellow house years ago with Robby leading it and it was always a fun time. Enjoy!
