The angel choir skipped the palace and went to the shepherds.

“This is God reaching out to everybody.” Graham Kendrick

The essence of being part of the body of Christ and being ‘church’ is that everybody brings something. The singing can be a symbol of everybody together, bringing something. Don’t come to church to worship. Come worshipping!
Graham Kendrick

A chill night has wrapped its arms
Around this hemisphere
And I am cold
A change in the weather
A storm on the way
Moving slow

"A chill night has wrapped its arms around this hemisphere."

Star of Morning lyric video. Written in a season of uncertainty. Ends with a prayer.

Star of morning, hurry the day, when tears and sorrows vanish away.

Star of Morning started with a mood. Something ominous, unknown. Covid brought it into focus, but the feeling wasn't new.

The morning star is the planet that shines before dawn. Hope, not because the darkness is gone, but because the day is coming.

"Worship should not only point us to God and one another, it should also point us to the millions who have never met Jesus, and whom God loves just as much as he loves us."
Graham Kendrick

If we overemphasise intimacy, the church starts to look inwards. If we only ever sing songs about me and God, we forget many things, including that we are a community. Scripture describes worship as both vertical and horizontal.
Graham Kendrick

[GrahamKendrickMusic @MakeWayMusic]

Can worship become too inward-looking?

Graham points to scripture's picture of worship as both vertical and horizontal: "Speak to one another in psalms, hymns and spiritual songs", to one another, and to God.

To keep Your lovely face
Ever before my eyes
This is my prayer
Make it my strong desire
That in my secret heart
No other love competes
No rival throne survives
And I serve only You

We become like what we worship, what we give our time and attention to. If we spend time thinking about Jesus and pondering his words, the picture of him will get richer and fuller by the day.

To Keep Your Lovely Face is a very simple and short song, but, it goes right to the heart of things.

"That in my secret heart no other love competes, no rival throne survives, and I serve only You."

Throughout the ages, different emphases come and go in the church, and usually songs are written out of the bigger picture that's happening. You can go back to different periods of church history and, through the hymns and songs, tell what was important to that generation.

[GrahamKendrickMusic @MakeWayMusic]

What can the church learn from the songs of previous generations?

In conversation with Polish worship leader Mate.O, Graham Kendrick reflects on how every era of church history leaves its record in what it sang.

Let all my movements express
A heart that loves to say ‘yes’
A will that leaps to obey you
Let all my energy blaze
To see the joy in your face
Let my whole being praise you
Praise you

You wrote the rhythm of life
Created heaven and earth
In You is joy without measure
So, like a child in your sight
I dance to see your delight
For I was made for your pleasure

We love to have a little faith compartment in our lives, but we want to carry on with the rest of our lives just how we like it. How different would it be if we could live according to the rhythm of God's heartbeat, the things that he really cares about?

What would change if we lived to the rhythm of God's heartbeat; the things he really cares about?

That's the question behind Teach Me to Dance.
