Favorite Songs

Welcome to “Friday Favorites!” Each Friday, we are going to be posting about some of our favorite things! Our “favorite” topics will vary, but we think it will help our readers to get to know our family better. We hope you enjoy! Perhaps we’ll even share some of the same “favorites.” J

Mark—Some of my favorites are “The Motions” by Matthew West, “Friends” by Michael W. Smith, “Days of Elijah,” and “Shout to the Lord.”

Betsy—Dangerous question! There are so many that I love, it’s hard to pick a favorite. But these are some of the ones that bring me to tears (a good sign!): Shout to the Lord, Days of Elijah, Surrender, Just a Glimpse, Word of God Speak, The Stand, Creation Calls, You Deliver Me, He Knows My Name, In Christ Alone, Jubilate Deo, Moment of Truth, Lay My Life Down, and ANYTHING by Nicole C. Mullen! But my ALL TIME FAVORITE, and the one I want played at my funeral, is: It Is Well with My Soul.

Bianca—My favorite song is “The Motions” by Matthew West. There is so much truth in it and God used the song to bring about lots of change in my life! But my “all time” favorite song is “Rockettown” by Michael W. Smith. I don’t really know why, but it has always been my favorite! I also love the song “Hosanna” as sung by Selah. It reminds me that God alone is worthy of my praise!

Ben—One of my favorite songs is the “Hallelujah Chorus” from Handel’s Messiah. I also like the song “The Moment of Truth” by Matthew West. Another favorite is “Everything to Me” by Avalon. I also enjoy “Great is the Lord” when sang by the Promise Keepers.

Rubia—One of my favorite songs is “Revelation Song” by Phillips, Craig, and Dean. I also love “This is My Father’s World.”

Roma—One of my favorites is “The Motions” by Matthew West. I also like “Listen” by Josh Wilson. And I like “If We’ve Ever Needed You” by Casting Crowns as well.

Josiah—My favorite song is “Hold us Together” by Matt Maher.

So…what are some of YOUR favorites?

Thank you for your comment, 989cookie! I too enjoy songs by Fernando Ortega! His style is very soothing and quieting. You might enjoy looking into hymns by Selah and Chris Rice. I have a CD by Chris Rice called "Peace Like A River--The Hymns Project" and it is an album of beautifully arranged hymns such as "The Old Rugged Cross," "It is Well With My Soul," and "Come Thou Fount." I think you'd really enjoy it!

Thanks again for your comment!
