Pentecostal Choruses

[Digging4Truth]

I am looking to integrate some of the older pentecostal choruses into our music program. As I've stated in the past I use mostly contemporary christian music in our music program but, here lately, I've been looking for some older songs... pentecostal style songs... to work in. Generally as the opening song.

Some examples I have come up with are...

Praise. him, praise him,Praise him in the morning etc

Living he loved me, dying he saved me etc

My God Is Real

How did you feel when you came out of the wilderness


So... I was just wondering if I could get some other suggestions from those who were around "back in the day" or still sing these types of songs.

I Hear The Sound Of Abundance Of Rain

That one reminds me also of "I feel the rain, I feel the rain" etc

[Falla39]

Faith, Faith, Faith, just a little bit of Faith.
Faith, Faith, Faith, just a littel bit of Faith.
You don't need a whole lot,
Just use what ya got,
Faith, Faith, Faith, just a little bit of faith.

Faith, Faith, Faith, just a little bit of Faith,
Faith, Faith, Faith, just a little bit of Faith.
A whole lot is not what you need,
About the size of a mustard seed.
Faith, Faith, Faith, just a little bit of faith.

I Love Him, I Love, Him, I Love Him.

I'm glad I know who Jesus is. I'm glad I know who Jesus is.
He's more than just a story, He is the King of Glory,
I'm glad I know who Jesus is!

[Falla39]

Everybody oughta know, everybody oughta know,
Everybody oughta know who Jesus is.
Everybody oughta tell, everybody oughta tell,
Everybody oughta tell, who Jesus is.

He's the Lily of the Valley. He's the Bright and Morning Star.
He's the fairest of ten thousand. Everybody oughta know.

[Falla39]

I just came to tell you what the good Lord's done for me.
I just came to tell you how He set my spirit free.
Picked me up, turned me around, set my feet on solid ground.
I just came to tell you what the good Lord's done for me.

About this one,it's beginning to rain.

[Falla39]

Just want to tell you, I'm thankful for all that You have done.
For the stars and the moonlight, and the setting sun.
And when my work on earth is through, I'm coming home to be with You,
Just want to tell You, I'm thankful, that's all.

Be a Fence all around me....(not sure of the title)

Post the chorus when you find them. I think this is interesting.

I will have to look for my older chorus.

[Apprehended]

I really like "Olive Oil."

It goes like this:

Olive oil. Olive oil
through eternity olive oil.
Olive oil. Yes, olive oil,
Through eterniteeeeeeeeeee, aah - llive oil.

[Apprehended]

Jesus Be a Fence All About Me everyday
I want him to protect me, guide me all the way
I know he can. I know he will.
He'll fight my battles if I keep still
Jesus be a fence all about me everyday.

...or pretty close at least. I have heard that song since about 1950 something.

[notofworks]

Whew......I have just read the words to about a dozen songs I never wanna hear again in my life!!:heeheehee

Yeah, was the favorite chorus of an old sailor. He got popped in the eye and was honorably discharged. Now he sells chicken.

You and I both...

[notofworks]

You and I both...



Come to our church.....I solemnly promise, left hand on a bible, right hand in the air, that you will NEVER hear any of this.

This thread reminds me of Numbers 14:3 when the Hebrew Children wanted to go back to Egypt.:heeheehee

[OneAccord]

"I've got a home in that rock, don't you see..."

A little kid in our church would sing, "I've got a hole in my sock, don't you see..."

[sandie]

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, sweetest Name I know
Fills my every longing
Keeps me singing as I go

[houston]

Thanks for the invitation. That is just too far of a drive for me. The church that I attend when I attend uses new material. Most of it is vertical praise. I love it.

Re: Numbers 14:3
Egypt is a typology of sin in the Jewish Testament. Faulty, faulty. The posters have not expressed a desire to return to Egypt. The thread starter is just ...nostalgic.

[missourimary]

All in Him
Power in the Blood

I know they're hymns, but they work as choruses.

Did you sing that before or after singing Bringing in the Sheets?:happydance

My friend, typology is whatever anyone wants to make it. Applying typologies to Old Testament stories is subjective and Egypt can represent sin to you and awful songs to me! :) It's like these numerologists that say, "The number 5 in the bible represents grace." Really??? Says who??

So my Numbers 14 analogy (while meant mostly to be funny) is NOT faulty!:grumpy

[Apprehended]

I loved that old song too.

I especially like that old timey altar call song that says,

"Oh whine not tonight. Oh whine not tonight
Wilt thou be saved, Oh whine not tonight

It always made me cry.

That's one of my all-time favorite hymns.

I have been racking my brain all day trying to remember the song that Sis Vera Kinzie used to always play whenever someone got baptized back in the '70's. It talked about being baptized in Jesus' name.

I'm so glad that I've been buried in the name of the Lord,
In the name of the Lord,
In the name of the Lord
I'm so glad that I've been buried in the name of the Lord,

You gotta know when to hold'em
Know when to fold'em
Know when to walk away
N'know when ta run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
They'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done.

That's the ONE, Ron!! Thanks!! I would have been awake all night racking my brain trying to remember what it was. :bored

You WANTED to remember that???

[Margies3]

You WANTED to remember that???

Not because I love the song. But I hate it when I can't remember something. It'll drive me crazy until I figure it out. Someone told me today that cholesterol medication can cause short term memory loss. I told Walt about that. He said, "ya, so I've heard. wait. What causes that?" duh!!! I wanted to :smack him upside the head!

Your welcome.
We still sing that at Baptisms.

Another verse goes like this.
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus is the name of the Lord.
Is the name of the Lord.
Is the name of the Lord.
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus is the name of the Lord.
Since the name of the Lord has been revealed.

Your welcome.
We still sing that at Baptisms.

At baptisms we used to sing...

I've already been to the water
I've already been baptized
I've already been converted
And I feel, I feel alright
'Cause I've been changed in Jesus Name
And I feel, I feel alright.

[Esther]

I don't recall ever having singing at a baptism. humm

In the churches I was in for nearly a decade (several churches... same pastor... He started churches and moved on to start another one) it was the standard. :)

[sandie]

The church I attended we use to sing this chorus at baptisims:

there's A New Name Written Down In Glory,
and It's Mine, O Yes, It's Mine!
and The White Robed Angels Sing The Story,
a Sinner Has Come Home.
for There's A New Name Written Down In Glory,
and It's Mine, O Yes, It's Mine!

[Cindy]

Heaven's Jubilee Chorus

Oh what singing, oh what shouting
On that happy morning when we all shall rise
Oh what glory, Hallelujah
When we meet our blessed Savior in the skies

[Margies3]

well, there is going to be
a meeting in the air
in the sweet, sweet by and by
I am going to meet you
meet you over there
in that home beyond the sky
such singing you will hear
never heard by mortal ear
twill be glorious I do declare
for God's own son
will be the leading one
at that Apostolic meeting in the sky.

[ggsharon]

What makes a song pentecostal?

I remember us singing that song, but not just for baptisims.

[Sweet Pea]

Jesus is the sweetest name I know
And He's just the same
As His lovely Name
That's the reason why I love Him so
For Jesus is the sweetest Name I know..

[Sweet Pea]

Sweep over my soul
sweep over my soul
Sweet Spirit, sweep over my soul
My rest is complete while I sit at Jesus' feet
Sweet Spirit, sweep over my soul.

[Sweet Pea]

Blessed be the Name was always our baptism song...

[Sweet Pea]

Search me, O God
and know my heart today
Try me, O Savior
Know my thoughts, I pray
See if there be
Some wicked way in me
Cleanse me from every sin
and set me free

[Norman]

Olive oil. Olive oil
through eternity olive oil.

Does anybody ever sing Just Glory In The Overland? or something like that.

[Rose]

Does anybody ever sing Just Glory In The Overland? or something like that.

Just over in the gloryland,
I’ll join the happy angel band.
Just over in the gloryland.
Just over in the gloryland,
There with the might host I’ll stand,
Just over in the gloryland.

[Sweet Pea]

Shut in with God in a secret place
There in the Spirit beholding His face
Gaining new power to run in this race
I long to be shut in with God

[Sweet Pea]

In the name of Jesus, there's power to set you free
In the name of Jesus, there's glorious victory.
Over sin, disease and sickness - power to walk in liberty
Through faith in His wonderful Name.

[Sam]

Faith, Faith, Faith, just a little bit of Faith.

[LOVE JESUS]

He is God on the platform
He is God back at the door
He is God in the Amen corner
He is God all over the floor.

He is God in the Father
He is God in the Son
He is God in the HOly Ghost
He is God all three in One.

He is God when the lightening flashes
He is God when the thunder rolls
He is God way up in Heaven
He is God way down in my soul.

I know God is God and He always will be God..

One Epley's favorite's. It really gets em shouting in those UC curches.


Why do you bob your hair, girls?
You're doing mighty wrong;
God gave it for a glory
And you should wear it long .
You spoil your lovely hair, girls,
You keep yourself in style;
Before you bob your hair, girls,
Just stop and think a while.

Why do you bob your hair, girls?
It is an awful shame
To rob the head God gave you
And bear the flapper's name.
You're taking off your covering,
It is an awful sin;
Don't never bob your hair, girls,
Short hair belongs to men.

Why do you bob your hair, girls?
It does not look so nice;
It's just to be in fashion,
lt's not the Lord's advice.
And every time you bob it
You're breaking God's command
You cannot bob your hair, girls
And reach the Glory land.

Why do you bob your hair, girls?
It's not the thing to do;
Just wear it, always wear it,
And to your Lord be true.
And when before the judgment
You meet your Lord up there,
He'll say, "Well done, for one thing,
You never bobbed your hair.

[AreYouReady?]

Is this really a song? LOL

I've never heard it in all my years in UPC.

[freeatlast]

Yes, in fact somewhere on you tube there is a Caston Smith it and dedicated it to Renda Craig.

To me it shows the demented mind of the UC.

To the UC it is cause for celebration and aisle running.
