Thank you for this extensive list! You’ve got some great songs here.

How to pray?
They need a bit more $$. They need safe travels in a few months. They need their marriage protected and secure during the stress of training and moving. I’m sure they’ll be blessed to know you’re praying for them. Thank you. Deeply. Thank you!

Rebecca St. James wrote a song called “Come Quickly Lord.” It’s pretty awesome.

Phil Wickham!

all of it is amazing…

And, in case your friends are reading: Thank you guys for following the call of Christ. It is not easy to take up your cross and FOLLOW JESUS, and yet you are doing just that! My prayer is that God’s favor shines upon you, and that you will experience utter joy and fulfillment in doing His will.

I didn’t see anything by Sean Feucht. You could pick any album of his and have a very uplifting listening experience.

I also think that Rick Pino’s “Mighty Warrior” is a take charge Holy Spirit kind of song.

Tomlin:
“I Will Rise”
“Amazing Grace”

Brooke Fraser/Hillsong:
“Lead Me to the Cross”
“CS Lewis Song”

Anything by Jason Upton, I especially like the album “Between Earth and Sky,” but the older version of “In the Silence” off “Open Up the Earth” is amazing.

EastMountainSouth have incredibly smooth and melodic harmonies like Simon and Garfunkel, with just a guitar I believe- two vocalists (male and female)

So many good songs in the world. Mandy Smith? YES.

My three favorite artists for both lyrics and melody:
Sara Groves- any CD (all of them are INCREDIBLE)
Caedmon’s Call (I like their self-entitled one best, or 40 Acres)
Andrew Peterson (some may not like his nasally voice, but his lyrics are incredible. favorite album…The Far Country)
