FYI, based on the scripture text, Ephesians 5:19 - "speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord," we believe in singing a cappella during worship. Blessings to you, Phil. Phil,

Have you caught wind of the Christian British invasion with artists like Matt Redman and Delirious? Really good stuff. Sam,

I have to admit that I am not good in this. FYI, I don't even know those song name that I love singing - kind of strange - right? However, I could name church songs without any problem at all such as: - Jesus Knows And Cares - Amazing Grace - What a Friend we have in Jesus - To God Be The Glory - Sing and Be Happy - Join in exaltation - Grace all sufficient God bless <a href="http://acquirewisdom.blogspot.com">Let's Acquire Wisdom and Live with Passion</a> Hi Phil,

Blackbird is certainly one of those. I've got a ways to go but I get a good start on it. Scott, I've been playing since I was sixteen. I wish I could remember all the songs I learned along the way. Lately I've had a renewed burst of inspiration in playing. Been focusing intros and lead parts which is fun. I find it to be one of the most relaxing things I can do. Mike, We all have our gifts and abilities. If I were a bit more gifted in that area perhaps I'd be a musician instead of a techie. Mostly I just enjoy picking and grinning.

I was never blessed with any musical ability, I can't even whistle well. :-) Thanks for the tag Phil! Scott tagged me as well, but I think I can work something out.

Redemption song is a favorite, as long as I don't have to try to sing it. I haven't been playing my guitar nearly enough lately (shame on me) but I think I can assemble something.

I actually know many of those songs. Woot! Blackbird and Sweet Baby James are favorites. My highschool sweetheart (who I almost married) used to play Blackbird. I actually learned to play it on the piano, too, but clearly, it doesn't sound quite the same. You can't exactly get a piano to make that interesting sound guitar strings make when you slide your fingers over to get that next chord...I'm singing and grinning right now! Excellent list, Phil.
