Looking For Some Of The Old Songs. (20 years ago)

[Digging4Truth]

I just remembered another one we will add to the list....

Anybody remember this one...

Picture Moses, On the Red Sea shore
Pharaoh knows he can't run no more...

I think that was a Mike Anderson special there.

group songs together that flow both in keys and content.
for instance, I might do a series of slow songs around the word"Glory" and group perhaps 3 songs together. here is an example:

Let there be glory and honor
O the glory, Of your presence
glory, Glory hallelujah(his truth is marching on)

many of your fast congregational songs work well together as long as they are in the same key

I know it was the blood
there is power in the blood
Thank God for the blood
I'm so glad he took my sins away

When I was sound tech at my former church I did this, for worship and praise, solos, and choirs...it worked great.

I did similar to this and then put everything in plastic envelopes in a binder. It was an invaluable resource! I don't need it anymore now since I don't have the responsibility for it anymore.

Thank the good Lord!

I looked for the lyrics online and all I found was a version by the Blues Brothers. Here is a portion of the lyrics so I can see if this is the same song you are speaking of.

Let us preach, at the Old (Preach the Word, Old Landmark)
Preach the Word, at the Old (Preach the Word, Old Landmark)
Preach the Word, at the Old (Preach the Word, Old Landmark)
Preach the Word, at the Old (Preach the Word, Old Landmark)
Preach the Word, at the Old (Preach the Word, Old Landmark)



Great song... on the list now.




Great idea...

Thanks so much.

I started out to follow You
A long, long time ago
We've been to the mountaintop
And to the valley low
Somehow it seems I lost my way
Through the cares of it all
But I remember the place
Where you spoke my name
And I heeded to Your call

Lord take me back
To the Old Landmark
Where I'll make a new commitment
And begin a fresh start
Help me find my direction
Place a burden in my heart
Lord take me back
To the Old Landmark

I guess I never heard that one. I will have to ask the musicians if they have.

Thanks.

How about a Pentecostal Praise song book?

I meant thank the good Lord I'm not responsible for directing or overseeing the music in our church. I don't have to do that now.

I love a lot of the new songs actually. Our music minister mixes it up. We do a couple hymns most Sundays along with the newer praise and worship songs as well.

Also have quite a few hymns as well.

Send it to me!


By the way, Bro. Wendell Jellison said to tell you and your hubbie hello! We had a great time of fellowship last week; both with the Lord Jesus and Bro. Jellison!

I forwarded the files to you that Felicity had sent me.
