Mrs. Bro. Adam Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 We need a theme song for a retreat all about Christian service. Ideas?
photosynthesis Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 this might be cheesy, but "Go make a difference"?
Thumper Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 If you're looking for a church song, how about "The Servant Song"? It can be found in the gather hymnal, is an easy tune, and bases service in Christ. Or for a song you might not run into within mass there is The Candle Song: www.eileenjahna.com/worship/thecandlesong.pdf (that site is going to load a PDF file with guitar chords as well as the lyrics).
Thy Geekdom Come Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 "Take the Seeds of God with You as You Go" by OCP *waits for Fides et Ratio to flip out* Nah, I really hate that song...catchy tune, though, but the words are fluffy carp and the tune is not Mass-appropriate...
Piccoli Fiori JMJ Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 I suggested "Hands and Feet" by Audio Adrenaline when I last chatted with her... I don't know if she is still looking though...
avemaria40 Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 If it's not Mass, I'd say "Dare You to Move," "Meant to Live" and "This is Your Life" by Switchfoot. If it is a Mass, "The Summons" from the Gather book would be good.
Thy Geekdom Come Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 "St. Teresa's Prayer" by John Michael Talbot... "Christ has no body now but yours...no hands, no feet on earth but yours..." From the prayer of St. Teresa of Avila...

Theoketos Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 "They will know we are Christian by our Love" popped into my head, though I think that "Dare you to move" might be better.

Liturgy is way cooler than OCP can even dream of expressing.
