Our music on Sundays combines both ancient and modern hymns, psalms, and spiritual songs with the primary goal of enabling all generations and musical tastes to worship the Living God. God has ordained praise from the foundations of the universe (Job 38:7). In worship, we are really singing God's song back to him. Music is the vehicle for our personal response to God's great redemption work .
MUSIC at ALL SAINTS'
Music is a profound part of reality. From the highest heaven to the darkest places on earth there is music.
Style
Our music is most often lead with piano, violin, and viola, and drums. We also regularly utilize guitar and organ in worship. We sing songs in a variety of styles from Irish folk to gospel jazz, traditional hymns to contemporary christian music. We are working on putting together a sampling of our music, but in the meantime you can check out our Facebook page for a better idea of our style!
Theology
Music each week is carefully selected to allow the congregation to respond in worship to the bible readings and sermon. We believe that the words we sing should be profoundly biblical and shape both our hearts and our minds in deeper love for the Living God.
Why Sing?
The living God is musical and sings! Zephaniah 3 tells us that God himself sings over us. This is part of why music moves us so powerfully. and it is why it needs to be a part of our daily lives. The biggest book in the bible is a song book! Throughout history, the Christian church has had rich and beautiful music and we believe that is a reflection of the character of God.
