My Favorite Gospel Songs of All Time
David Wood, co-founder of Empower Network, says
1) Blog Daily 2) Tell Others 3) Get Paid.
He teaches us to write a blog every day. He even tells us that if we are religious we should write something with a religious theme or context on Sunday. The point is that we should do this discipline every day, even on our Sabbaths and holidays.
So, it at the end of a busy Sunday. You see, that is my Sabbath day. And I'm a minister. I get to enjoy my Sunday, but it is also a "work day."
But, you see, I don't mind. I'm a Music Pastor and I get to play and sing some great music every week with wonderful musicians and vocalists. These dear people are all volunteers, giving of their time, talent and skill to help me lead our congregation in the worship of our God.
It is an awesome privilege that I have. I love working with this group of devoted individuals. And the songs we play and sing are some of the best ever written.
I've been singing hymns and gospel songs since I was a young boy. I remember standing next to my dad while my sister played the piano. We would sing some great songs together, and although I was a bit nervous I enjoyed it.
And so that brings me to write about some of My Favorite Gospel Songs of All Time.
These are in no particular order.
