Due to the 10 services in 5 days last week I did not get a chance to post the setlist from last weekend.
We begun the service with:
Gloria (Angels we have heard)
All Creation Sing (Joy to the World)
Then I presented John 3:16 and 17 (God did not send his son to CONDEMN the world, but to SAVE the world through him) in the context of What Child is This? That song asks the question: What is the significance of this Child?
The answer is twofold:
1. This is Christ the King!
2. He came to Save the World (John 3:17)
We then sung What Child is This? and ended with
Let Us Adore / O Come Let Us Adore Him (which by the way is a great combo and the people really responded to it)
THEN…
For the Christmas Eve Eve and Eve services I had the priveledge of playing guitar while Eric led. We did a bunch of music for those services.
Prelude: This Christmas (instrumental)
Service:
All Creation Sing – Fee
Joyful Joyful We Adore Thee
Hark the Herald Angels – Traditional
O Come All Ye Faithful – Trad
We did “Who Comes This Night?” as a performance piece (James Taylor style)
O Holy Night
Silent Night with candlelighting and normally that would be the end of the service, but instead we wanted to end on a high note so we did
Joy to the World – Avalon with Joy to the World traditional to conclude the service and series “Good News, Great Joy!”
God Bless you in the New Year!
