Worship Recap & Set List: January 17, 2009
Recap: We led worship with the thought of Haiti and the suffering there. As Christians, its important to call out to God on behalf of those who are hurting–whether it be someone sitting next to us or a nation next to ours that lives in devastation. So, we took a moment in our worship time to pray and ask God to break our hearts for what breaks his heart.
Set List: We introduced “Cannons” by Phil Wickham, after having done it at our Night of Worship the previous weekend. I made a point of sharing that we learn new songs for two reasons: one, its Biblical such as in Psalm 40:3, and, it helps us include everyone in a communal experience–whether you have been a part of our church for ten years or this is your first time, learning a song together is a shared event.
- Let God Arise – Chris Tomlin
- Hosanna – Paul Baloche
- Cannons – Phil Wickham
- Sweetly Broken – Jeremy Riddle
- Blessed Be Your Name – Matt Redman

We are introducing Cannons thisa coming Sunday. Pretty exited about it great song!
This past week we were limited with no electric guitars,I had hoped to just go acoustic and a cajon box for something different, however we stayed with full drums bass and acoustic. It came off better than expected.

Blessed Be Your Name – Redman
All Creatures – Crowder version
In Christ Alone

Forever – Tomlin
Rich,
Good setlist. I really like what you mentioned about the shared experience aspect of learning new worship songs together. Even seemingly small steps together are still steps together!
