Pentecostal Choruses
 

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.

There Is Going To Be A Meeting In The Air
Heaven Is Better Than This

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

I Know The Master Of The Wind
I Hear The Sound Of Abundance Of Rain

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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

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'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!

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.

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.

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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.

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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.

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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.

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

:heeheehee

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

You and I both...

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

"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..."

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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.

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

All in Him
Power in the Blood
He Set me Free

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

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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.

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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.

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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,
Since the name of the Lord has been revealed.

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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.

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

You WANTED to remember that???

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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!

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

Isn't that the worst thing? Ugh, hate it.

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

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.

Re: Pentecostal Choruses
 

Indeed. I like those.
