Shoot Up a Prayer

[Verse 1]
When the night feels heavy and your strength is gone,
When the road is dark and the path feels wrong,
Call on the Lord—He is close to the weak,
He hears every tear before we even speak. (Psalm 34:17–18)
He said, “Ask of Me,” and the mountains move,
Trust in His Word—His promises are true. (Mark 11:23–24)

[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t fear the storm or the winds that blow,
Your Father sees every step you go. (Matthew 6:8)
He holds your life in His mighty hand,
He goes before you in every land. (Deuteronomy 31:8)

[Chorus (Hook)]
Shoot up a prayer to heaven’s throne,
He’s listening close, you’re not alone.
Shoot up a prayer, He hears your cry,
The God who rules the earth and sky.
Shoot up a prayer, He knows your name—
His love is strong, His power remains.
Shoot up a prayer to heaven’s throne…
He’s listening—you’re never alone.

[Verse 2]
When the fear comes whispering in the dead of night,
Stand on His truth, let His Word be your light. (Psalm 119:105)
He bends His ear to the humble heart,
Rest in His peace that never departs. (Philippians 4:6–7)
Knock on the door—He will open wide,
Run to His arms, let His mercy abide. (Matthew 7:7–8)

[Bridge]
Not by might and not by earthly power,
But by His Spirit every hour. (Zechariah 4:6)
Chains will break and fear will fade,
When whispered prayers are quietly made.
Heaven moves when saints draw near,
Every word you pray—your God will hear.

[Chorus]
Shoot up a prayer to heaven’s throne,
He’s listening close, you’re not alone.
Shoot up a prayer, He hears your cry,
The God who rules the earth and sky.
Shoot up a prayer, He knows your name—
His love is strong, His power remains.
Shoot up a prayer to heaven’s throne…
He’s listening—you’re never alone.

[Chorus (final)]
Shoot up a prayer to heaven’s throne,
He’s listening close, you’re not alone.
Shoot up a prayer, He hears your cry,
The God who rules the earth and sky.
Shoot up a prayer, He knows your name—
His love is strong, His power remains.
Shoot up a prayer to heaven’s throne…
He’s listening—you’re never alone.

 

 

Shut It Down, Turn You Up

[Verse 1]
I get alone with God, I close the door
I whisper, “Teach me how to hear You more”
You’ve been speaking all along, I know it’s true
But all the noise keeps drowning You

I hear a voice inside my head
Says I’m not enough, better left unsaid
Not smart enough, not strong or brave
Just every failure I replay

[Pre-Chorus]
That critic’s loud, it knows my name
It speaks in fear, it speaks in shame
But I’m tired of believing lies
I want Your truth, not their disguise

[Chorus]
So shut it down, turn You up
Silence fear, amplify love
I wanna hear what Heaven says
Over every word inside my head
Still small voice, speak to me
Louder than the lies I believe
Shut it down, turn You up
I’m listening for Your love

[Verse 2]
There’s another voice I hardly hear
Says, “You are loved, I’m always near”
“With an everlasting love, you are Mine
You are enough all the time”

It says, “I’m proud of who you are
Not who you’ll be, not how far”
But why’s it quiet, soft, and low?
Maybe I was trained to hear the other one more

[Pre-Chorus 2]
So I bring You every thought I hide
Every regret, every time I tried
I say, “Lord, this is what I hear
Accusations ringing clear”

[Chorus]
So shut it down, turn You up
In the name of Jesus, silence the rush
Every lie, every enemy sound
Can’t stay when Your truth’s around
Still small voice, speak to me
Tell me who You are, who I’m meant to be
Shut it down, turn You up
I’m listening for Your love

[Bridge]
I hear, “You’re Mine, you’re forgiven”
“You’re not a failure, you’re redeemed and chosen”
I hear the truth about who You are
Faithful Father, near, not far

I hear the truth of who I am
A child held in Your hands
I hear the truth of who they are
My neighbor seen through mercy’s heart

And the more I listen, the louder it gets
Peace replaces fear and regret
You say, “Let’s walk through the storm together
You can hear Me in any weather”

[Bridge 2 / Build]
In the whisper
In the wind
In the fire
I hear You then
In the quiet
In the roar
I know Your voice now more than before

[Chorus – Big]
Shut it down, turn You up
Heaven’s louder than the flood
Every lie has lost its grip
I know the sound of truth now, this is it
Still small voice, speak to me
Now I hear You clearly
Shut it down, turn You up
I’m walking forward in Your love

[Outro]
So here I go, into the storm
I know Your voice, I’m not alone
I’ve learned to listen, I’ve learned to trust
I shut it down… and I turned You up

Simeon’s Song (inspired by Luke 2:25-35)

[Verse 1]
I am Simeon, righteous and devout,
Waiting for the Messiah, there’s no doubt.
The Holy Spirit spoke, a promise true,
I would not die before I saw You.

[Verse 2]
That day He led me to the Temple gate,
Mary and Joseph came, I could not wait.
They brought the child, the Savior of all,
In my arms I held Him, heaven’s call.

[Chorus]
Sovereign Lord, now let Your servant rest,
Your promised salvation, I have blessed.
I have seen Your light for every land,
The glory of Israel held in my hands.

[Verse 3]
A light to nations, shining bright,
Revealing God with holy light.
Glory of Israel, Your chosen Son,
Your work of love has just begun.

[Bridge]
He will cause some to fall, some to rise,
A sign from heaven before our eyes.
Many will oppose Him, every heart will show,
A sword will pierce your very soul below.

[Chorus (Repeat / Elevation)]
Sovereign Lord, now let Your servant rest,
Your promised salvation, I have blessed.
I have seen Your light for every land,
The glory of Israel held in my hands.

[Outro]
I have seen Your salvation,
I have seen Your salvation,
The glory of Israel, Your holy Son.
I have seen your salvation.
I have seen your salvation.
I have seen your salvation.
Jesus.

Take Up Your Cross Daily (inspired by Luke 9:23)

[verse 1]
You said, “If anyone will come after Me”
Let him lay down his own way and follow faithfully
Not may will, but Yours alone
Jesus, You are Lord on the throne

[pre-chorus]
Every step begins with surrendering all
Hearing Your voice and answering Your call

[chorus]
Deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Me
This is the path of true discipleship
Not my desires, but Your authority
You lead the way, I walk in obedience
Deny yourself, take up your cross each day
Say no to me and yes to Your way
You are the Shepherd, I will agree—
I give my life and follow Thee

[verse 2]
Give up my own way, I choose to obey
What I want must fade as I follow what You say
You have the right to rule over me
Not just my Savior, my Lord You will be

[pre-chorus]
Daily I lay my plans at Your feet
So Christ alone has preeminence in me

[chorus]
Deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Me
This is the path of true discipleship
Not my desires, but Your authority
You lead the way, I walk in obedience
Deny yourself, take up your cross each day
Say no to me and yes to Your way
You are the Shepherd, I will agree—
I give my life and follow Thee

[bridge]
To die to myself, to live in Your will
To silence my voice and learn to be still
Wherever You lead, that is where I’ll go
In trust and surrender, Your life I will show

[final chorus]
Deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Me
No turning back, my choice is made
You are my Lord, eternally
My life is Yours, I am unafraid
Deny yourself, take up your cross each day
Walking the narrow, obedient way
One path alone will ever be—
I leave it all and follow Thee

Teach Us to Pray (inspired by Matthew 6:5-13)

[Verse 1]
When I come to You, I don’t come to perform,
Not for the praise of people or a public reward,
I close the door, I quiet my heart,
You see what’s hidden in the dark.

You see the faith without a sound.

Before I ask, You understand,
Still You invite me to take Your hand.

Forgive our sins as we forgive instead,

Forever and ever, we worship the Lord.

On earth below as above it’s begun.

I find my Father, I find my life.

Thankful in All Circumstances (inspired by 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18) – download mp3

Thankful in All Circumstances (inspired by 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18)

Verse 1
When the morning light is rising
Or the night feels cold and tough,
When the road is bright with blessings
Or the path is long and rough—
There’s a whisper from the Savior,
Soft but steady as it rings:
“Be thankful in all circumstances,
I am working in all things.”

Chorus
I will praise You in the sunshine,
I will praise You in the rain.
I will thank You in my laughter,
I will thank You in my pain.
For this is Your will and purpose
For the ones You have redeemed—
To be thankful in all circumstances,
Trusting in Your care.

Verse 2
When Your answer seems so quick,
Or I’m sifting through the sand,
When the valley seems unending
Yet You guide me by the hand—
Hope is like a desert oasis,
Faith is learning how to sing:
“Be thankful in all circumstances,
For I’m held by Christ my King.”

Chorus
I will praise You in the sunshine,
I will praise You in the rain.
I will thank You in my laughter,
I will thank You in my pain.
For this is Your will and purpose
For the ones You have redeemed—
To be thankful in all circumstances,
Trusting in Your care.

Bridge
In the heartbreak, in the waiting,
In the joy that grace will bring—
You are faithful, You are present,
Lord, You’re the thread in everything.
So I’ll lift my hands in worship
Through the sorrow and the spring—
Be it storm or be it stillness,
I’ll be thankful as I sing.

Final Chorus
I will praise You in the sunshine,
I will praise You in the rain.
I will thank You in my laughter,
I will thank You in my pain.
For this is Your will and purpose
For the ones You have redeemed—
To be thankful in all circumstances,
Jesus, teach my heart.

The Gospel Pure and True

[Verse 1]

O God of all creation,
Who formed us by Your hand,
We wandered from Your presence
And broke Your holy plan.
Yet still Your love pursued us,
Though we were lost in sin;
You sent Your Son to save us,
To make us whole again.

[Verse 2]

He came to dwell among us,
A man yet holy, pure;
He took our pain upon Him,
Our sorrows to endure.
He suffered on the hillside,
He died upon the tree;
But rose in mighty vict’ry
To set His people free.

[Verse 3]

Though God desires all people
To turn, believe, and live,
He will not force the sinner
His saving grace to give.
For He has granted freedom
To choose the narrow way;
Yet calls with patient mercy
That none be lost astray.

[Verse 4]

No work of ours can purchase
The grace that You bestow;
For salvation is a treasure
That only You can show.
By faith in Christ our Savior,
The gift is freely giv’n;
Through Him we find forgiveness
And peace with God in heav’n.

[Verse 5]

So turn your heart to Jesus,
Believe His saving name;
The One who calls you gently
Will never bring you shame.
All who receive His mercy
Are cleansed and made anew;
The grace of our Redeemer
Is strong and ever true.

[Final Refrain]

Glory be to Jesus,
The Holy One who saves;
Our hope, our life eternal,
The Victor o’er the grave.

The Lord Is My Shepherd (Psalm 23)

The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall lack nothing.
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
He restores my soul.

He guides me in the paths of righteousness
for his name’s sake.
Even though I walk through
the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me.
Your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil.
My cup runs over.

Surely goodness and loving kindness
shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the Lord’s house forever.

THE OTHER SIDE (lyrics inspired by Mark 4:35-41)

[Verse 1]
Jesus said, “Let’s cross the lake,
We’re going to the other side.”

But when the storm began to shake,
Fear rose up inside.
They forgot the words He’d spoken,
As the waves began to rise—
But His promise wasn’t broken,
He was right there by their side.

[Chorus]
To the other side—He’s gonna take you there.
Through the wind and waves, through the heavy air.
He didn’t bring you this far just to watch you drown—
When the storm grows loud, His love holds you down.
Yes, the journey’s rough, but in Him we abide—
You can trust the Lord to get you to the other side.

[Verse 2]
There are two questions that only you can answer
when you face these storms:
“Why am I still so afraid?”
“Why is my faith still so fragile?”
But the scars that mark our story
Show the battles we’ve survived—
Proof that God has carried us
Every time we cried.

[Chorus]
To the other side—He’s gonna take you there.
Through the wind and waves, through the heavy air.
He didn’t bring you this far just to watch you drown—
When the storm grows loud, His love holds you down.
Yes, the journey’s rough, but in Him we abide—
You can trust the Lord to get you to the other side.

[Verse 3]
Yes, we have scars. Yes, we have painful memories.
Yes, we have brokenness.
But we can trust the Lord to get us to the other side.

[Chorus]
To the other side—He’s gonna take you there.
Through the wind and waves, through the heavy air.
He didn’t bring you this far just to watch you drown—
When the storm grows loud, His love holds you down.
Yes, the journey’s rough, but in Him we abide—
You can trust the Lord to get you to the other side.

[Bridge]
He’s in control when the night is long,
He calms the storm with a word, with a song.
Your brokenness won’t keep Him away—
He’s held you before, He’ll hold you today.

[Chorus]
To the other side—He’s gonna take you there.
Through the wind and waves, through the heavy air.
He didn’t bring you this far just to watch you drown—
When the storm grows loud, His love holds you down.
Hold to His promise, let faith be your guide—
You can trust the Lord to get you to the other side.

[Final Chorus]
To the other side—He’s gonna take you there.
Through the wind and waves, through the heavy air.
He didn’t bring you this far just to watch you drown—
When the storm grows loud, His love holds you down.
Hold to His promise, let faith be your guide—
You can trust the Lord to get you to the other side.

There Is a Fountain (William Cowper, 1772) – download mp3

There Is a Fountain (lyrics by William Cowper, 1772)

[Verse 1]
There is a fountain filled with blood,
Drawn from Immanuel’s veins,
And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains:
Lose all their guilty stains,
Lose all their guilty stains;
And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains.

[Verse 2]
The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in His day;
And there have I, though vile as he,
Washed all my sins away:
Washed all my sins away,
Washed all my sins away;
And there have I, though vile as he,
Washed all my sins away.

[Verse 3]
Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its pow’r,
Till all the ransomed church of God
Are safe, to sin no more:
Are safe, to sin no more,
Are safe, to sin no more;
Till all the ransomed church of God
Are safe, to sin no more.

[Verse 4]
E’er since by faith I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme,
And shall be till I die:
And shall be till I die,
And shall be till I die;
Redeeming love has been my theme,
And shall be till I die.

[Verse 5]
When this poor, lisping, stamm’ring tongue
Lies silent in the grave,
Then in a nobler, sweeter song,
I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save:
I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save,
I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save;
Then in a nobler, sweeter song,
I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save.

 

The Curtain (inspired by Mark 15:37–38) – download mp3

The Curtain (Inspired by Mark 15:37–38)

[verse 1]
In the temple hung a curtain, towering in the air,
Scarlet threads and woven gold, a warning standing there.
Sixty feet of mystery, thirty wide and strong,
Keeping holy glory from the sinner all along.
Only the high priest could enter once a year with trembling hand,
With the blood of sacrifice before the Great I Am.
A barrier of mercy, a line none could cross,
Until the day salvation came upon the cross.

[pre-chorus]
Darkness fell on Calvary, the earth began to shake,
And heaven watched the moment history would make.

[chorus]
The curtain was torn from the top to the floor,
God opened the way forevermore.
“Come inside the curtain, come unto Me,
The blood of the Lamb has set you free.”
The sacrifice made, the price satisfied,
The door to His presence opened wide.
The curtain was torn when our Savior died.

[verse 2]
When the Lamb cried out and breathed His final breath,
Love was overcoming even death itself.
In the temple courts the silence split in two,
As the mighty veil was torn from heaven’s view.
Not by human strength, not by mortal blade,
But the hand of God a holy pathway made.
What had stood for ages keeping hearts apart
Fell before the mercy flowing from His heart.

[pre-chorus]
And through the tearing curtain heaven seemed to say,
“The door to My presence is open today.”

[chorus]
The curtain was torn from the top to the floor,
God opened the way forevermore.
“Come inside the curtain, come unto Me,
The blood of the Lamb has set you free.”
The sacrifice made, the price satisfied,
The door to His presence opened wide.
The curtain was torn when our Savior died.

[bridge]
“I am accessible,” the Father now declares,
“Come inside the curtain, bring your wounds and prayers.
I am here before you, I am drawing near,
Through the blood of Jesus you are welcome here.
The sacrifice is finished, the debt has all been paid,
The Lamb of God has given all His life to save.
Once for every sinner, once for all the world,
Mercy’s crimson banner now is fully unfurled.”

[final chorus]
The curtain was torn from the top to the ground,
Heaven’s invitation forever resounds.
“Come into My presence, come just as you are,
The blood of the Lamb has opened My heart.”
The sacrifice made, the victory won,
The debt has been paid by God’s own Son.
The curtain was torn when the Savior died—
Now the door to God’s presence stands open wide.

Let earth receive these words now found
The Rock is perfect, just and true

Yet still we wandered far away

But still Your covenant endures

For He will claim what He has sown
He will repay, He will defend
And cleanse the land again

I wound, I heal, I raise, I bring low
All power is Mine alone
I will repay, I will restore
My people I will not ignore
Rejoice, the faithful will be free—
There is no God but Me

[outro]
The Rock stands firm through every age
Righteous and just in wrath and grace
From first to last, let all proclaim—
The Lord alone forever reigns

Whatever brings hope, whatever brings light.
Whatever is lovely, pure, and clean,
Lord, help me think on these things.

Bridge
You guard my heart, You calm my fears,
Your peace remains through all the years.
You lift my eyes to higher things—
To truth that only heaven brings.

Final Chorus
Whatever is true, whatever is right,
Whatever brings hope, whatever brings light.
Whatever is lovely, pure, and clean,
Lord, help me think on these things.
Yes, help me think on these things.

Those Who Pray (lyrics inspired by E. M. Bounds)

[Verse 1]
Those who’ve done the most for God
Have been early on their knees.
They’ve found the strength in secret rooms,
In closets where hearts are free.
Prayer is not learned in a classroom,
But in the quiet, face to face,
Where every whispered word of faith
Holds heaven’s power and grace.

[Chorus]
Those who pray a lot will accomplish much,
Those who pray little will see little done.
Those who don’t pray will accomplish nothin’,
But kneeling hearts will see God’s work begun.
Prayer puts the work of God in His hands,
And brings His will to life in all the lands.

[Verse 2]
Prayer is not a step before the fight,
It is the battle, the flame, the war.
Each cry that rises in humble faith
Moves heaven and opens the door.
Prayers outlive the lives of those who speak,
They echo beyond our mortal days.
Each word we lift, each moment spent,
Leaves power in eternity’s ways.

[Chorus]
Those who pray a lot will accomplish much,
Those who pray little will see little done.
Those who don’t pray will accomplish nothin’,
But kneeling hearts will see God’s work begun.
Prayer puts the work of God in His hands,
And brings His will to life in all the lands.

[Bridge]
Not by might, not by plan,
But by the faithful on their knees they stand.
From closets, hearts rise strong and free,
God’s work accomplished in secrecy.

[Final Chorus]
Those who pray a lot will accomplish much,
Those who pray little will see little done.
Those who don’t pray will accomplish nothin’,
But kneeling hearts will see God’s work begun.
Prayer puts the work of God in His hands,
And brings His will to life in all the lands.

Trust in the Lord and do what is good,
Dwell in the land, be faithful and true.
Feed on His faithfulness day after day,
He will provide all you need on the way.

[Pre-Chorus]
He is enough, His promise is sure—

He gives your heart what words cannot say.
Commit every step, every plan, every test,
Roll it on Him and learn how to rest.

Be still, wait on Him, don’t strive or contest—

He shapes your desires, refines what you try.
Hope rises up when your joy is in His truth,
He writes His purpose deep into you.

What He has spoken, He will perform—

Trust in the Lord, delight in His way,

Like dawn upon the sea.
He lifts your cause like the noonday sun,
Clear, faithful, and confessed—
So quiet your soul, be still before Him,
And enter into His rest.

[Final Chorus]
Trust in the Lord, delight in His way,
He holds tomorrow and walks with you today.
Commit every burden, each worry confessed,
Lay it before Him and rest in His rest.
Be still, wait on Him, don’t fret or resist—
His timing is perfect, His promise exists.
Let go, lean in, be calm and blessed—
Trust, delight, commit, and rest.

[Outro]
Be still before the Lord…
And wait patiently for Him.

Trust Him In All Your Ways (inspired by Proverbs 3:5-6)

[Verse 1]

When the road feels dark before me,
And my heart begins to sway,
Lord, You call me to surrender,
To trust You more each day.
Not leaning on my wisdom,
Not walking by my sight,
Your Word becomes my compass,
Your presence is my light.

He will guide my life with His gentle hand.
Trust Him, trust Him in all your ways—
He makes straight paths for all my days.

[Verse 2]

In the stillness You remind me
You are faithful, good, and true.
Every burden, every question,
I can lay them all on You.
When I choose to acknowledge
Your name in all I do,
You lead me through the valleys,
Your promise carries through.

I will trust in the Lord with all my heart,
Give Him every step, every hidden part.
I won’t lean on the things I understand—

Every fear falls down,
Every doubt undone,
When I place my life
In the hands of the Holy One.
Your direction’s sure,
Your faithfulness remains—
You lift me up and you lead me on
Through every joy and pain.

I will trust in the Lord with all my heart,
Give Him every step, every hidden part.

He will guide my life with His gentle hand.
Trust Him, trust Him in all your ways—
He makes straight paths for all my days.
Yes, He makes straight paths for all my days.

[Final Chorus]

I will trust in the Lord with all my heart,
Give Him every step, every hidden part.

He will guide my life with His gentle hand.

He makes straight paths for all my days.
Yes, He makes straight paths for all my days.

Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus (inspired by Helen Howarth Lemmel)

[Verse 1]
O soul, are you weary and troubled tonight?
Is hope hard to see in the shadowed sky?
There’s light when you look to the Savior’s face,
A life overflowing with mercy and grace.

[Pre-Chorus]
When the night feels heavy, when faith feels thin,
Lift up your eyes and let heaven break in.

[Chorus]
Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of this world will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace.

[Verse 2]
Through death into life everlasting He came,
He carried the cross, He conquered the grave.
Now sin has no power, its rule is undone,
We stand as more than conquerors in the Son.

[Pre-Chorus]
The stone was rolled back, the victory won,
We walk in the freedom His love has begun.

[Chorus]
Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of this world will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace.

[Bridge]
His Word will not fail, He has promised us all,
Stand firm in belief, He will answer your call.
Go tell the world that is dying for truth,
There’s hope and salvation forever in You.

[Build / Breakdown]
So lift up your eyes, let fear fade away,
There’s peace in His presence, there’s power in His name.

[Final Chorus]
Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of this world will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace.

[Outro]
In the light… of His glory and grace.

Twinkling of an Eye (inspired by 1 Corinthians 15:51-52 and Titus 2:13)

[Verse 1]
Listen, I tell you a mystery now
We will not all sleep in the ground
But we will all be changed, suddenly
By His power and His victory

[Pre-Chorus]
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye
When the final trumpet splits the sky

[Chorus]
For when the trumpet sounds, the dead will rise
Raised to live forever, before our eyes
And we who are living will be transformed
In glory and power, forever adorned

[Verse 2]
This earthly body will put on the new
A heavenly life, forever with You
What once was mortal will be made alive
By the King who comes in power and light

[Pre-Chorus]
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye
At the last trumpet’s holy cry

[Chorus]
For when the trumpet sounds, the dead will rise
Raised to live forever, before our eyes
And we who are living will be transformed
In glory and power, forever adorned

[Bridge]
We are looking forward, hearts awake
For the glory that will be revealed one day
Our great God and Savior will appear
Jesus Christ, our hope is here

[Final Chorus]
We wait for the day when He returns
In radiant glory the whole world will learn
Our blessed hope, our risen King
All praise to Him, our everything

[Outro]
We are waiting, watching, holding on
For the coming of the Holy One
Our blessed hope, we will see His face
Jesus Christ, our saving grace

Welcome!  We utilized AI and some of our favorite Scripture verses and lyrics to hymns in the public domain to produce these original Christian songs you find on this webpage. Please drop an email to us at inspiration@thegoodbookcompany.com and let us know which ones are your favorites. Note: This webpage will constantly be changing as we add/delete songs we are testing, etc.

We felt led to produce these and hope they bring encouragement to you, your family and friends. Please share this website (https://FreeChristianMusic.online) with others who could use the encouragement. And please download the mp3’s and share with all freely. The songs are owned by us, Russ & Janelle Hansen, however, we are giving you permission to use and share for personal use as well as for your ministry, church, hospital, etc.

“Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts” (Colossians 3:16, emphasis added).

. . . . . . . .

Since it is a little bit of hassle to download each song individually since there currently 128 songs (as of 4/6/26) represented here (about 7 hours of music), if you’d like a thumb drive (USB memory stick) sent your way with all of the mp3’s (the list below is constantly growing), just make a donation of any amount to help us with the cost of the thumb drive and mailing.

Many vehicles built in the last 10 years or so have a USB port in their sound system to allow you go just plug the memory stick in and select “Auxiliary.” We enjoy listening to these songs in our vehicles. Otherwise you can plug it into your computer and add to your songs or just listen one by one directly from the stick.

If you feel led to help support us in this ministry you can do so by CLICKING HERE. We have server streaming expenses and software costs involved in creating these songs and we appreciate your help.

If you would like to distribute the music via USB memory sticks, simply donate $7 per memory stick and we’ll burn the mp3s to them and send them to you. Order HERE.  We can also drop one in the mail to anyone in the continental US with a note from you.

We can send a portable Bluetooth speaker (20 watt speaker or more) to a senior/shut-in in your life that has all of our current songs on a micro sd card contained within the speaker itself making it an all-in-one Christian music experience. Just make a donation of at least $97 and we’ll get one sent out to the name and address you specify. As of April 6, 2026, we have 128 songs. This would bring them a lot of spiritual encouragement. Your church may want to buy several of these speakers with the music built-in to share with elderly in your congregation for their enjoyment at their home/apartment as a ministry.

Also, we are planning to send out a video featuring one of these songs each week on Fridays for Pastor Cecil Thompson’s DailyEvotional which can be viewed and subscribed to at https://DailyEvotional.com/
