As we enter the final week before Easter, the church packs a lot in. But it also comes with some great music. So I’ve put together a list of some of my favourite hymns/songs just right for this week.
First: Love is His Word. Simple melody, good words, covers the whole week
Second: Brother, Sister (The Servant Song). I grew up singing this one at Maundy Thursday. Not strictly Holy Week, but does fit the story and I like it.
There is some great Good Friday music. I couldn’t narrow it down, so here’s 3
First, possibly one of my favourite hymns (it’s definitely in my top three…). My Song is Love Unknown
Second is more recent, but still worth a place on this playlist. Come and See by Graham Kendrick
And thirdly, a timeless song. Were you there.
And finally, 2 for Easter Sunday. One is a must for Easter Sunday, Thine Be The Glory. Its a cracking sing, and it doesn’t feel like Easter without it (in my opinion). The other is See What A Morning. Another great sing, just right for the joyous celebration on Easter day
So there’s a short Holy Week play list for those who enjoy music and find it a good way to engage with the season.
