Sunday Setlist 1/11/09

When we started rehearsing today, my thoughts were that this was not going to be a good morning. If you follow me on twitter or facebook you know what I am talking about.  On Wednesday we had installed four brand new wireless Sure microphones and when installed there were a few cracks and buzzes but I thought we had worked them out. Sunday morning, as we began rehearsal, the gremlins reared their ugly head and the microphones again were cracking. Luckily we had the old microphones, reinstalled them and we were good to go. 

When things don’t work well I start worrying. I know I shouldn’t but we also had a guest singing with us this morning and I wanted everything to work well, you know, so she didn’t think that this is how it always was. So I really spent my morning worrying about pleasing people and not God. I think there is a verse about that. Thankfully God worked even inspite of me and the morning was great. The band sounded awesome, and the vocals did a great job. And yes.. the microphones worked great.  It turned out to be one of the best Sundays that we have had so far.

So with all of that here was our Songlist

Wade in the Water- (Based on Eva Cassidy Version) Our service this week was on the Baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist.  Having the voices of Shelly and Kerri this song was a natural choice for us to use to kick off the service.

Cover us- (The Sonflowerz) We heard this on the Song Discovery 72 CD. We actually will be working 6 or so songs from this CD in the next few weeks.

Stir In Me (Todd Proctor) They were doing this song even before I got here and it has made it through the years. I think it’s because it’s easy to sing and the band loves to play it.

Did You Know? and Thank You For Loving Me- (Shelly Wilson) The band loved playing this song off of Shelly’s latest CD and the best part was that she was here to sing them live with us. 

You Never Let Go-(Matt and Beth Redman)- Our pastor ended his sermon talking about the fact that no matter how we feel God is always there no matter what. I didn’t know really how his sermon was going to end but this song fit perfectly.

  1. You Never Let Go is such a great song for the beginning of the year. I may use it this coming week.

    Thanks for posting and for the intro to The Sonflowerz.

  2. Great setlist! I totally understand how you feel. I sometimes feel that way too but we have to keep our focus on our God at all times, whether good or bad. I am glad everything turned out great.

    How did Cover Us go over? Great set.

  4. Thanks Gary, it was the first time for us to sing Cover Us. It’s easy to learn though so I think the congregation will catch on.

  5. Love it when our song choices fit with what the pastor is preaching – shows it’s not about us and our choosing at all really. Bless you Russell

  6. Those pesty sound system gremlins!! Glad everything turned out great and God was glorified anyways.
