My Mom
When you think of Mother’s Day songs…you think of songs that offer tribute to Mothers, right?
Well, why not consider songs of devotion to God that can be sung by a group of ladies or female solo? As mothers, we constantly strive to live a godly life. Why not sing about that devotion?
Here are a few suggestions for ladies’ ensemble: (Click on each song title to view music)
1. The Shepherd Psalm by John Carter (Hope Publishing Co.)
2. A Tender Heart by Ron Hamilton (Majesty Music) Also available in: Patch the Pirate Praises 1
Audio for A Tender Heart
3. By the Gentle Waters by Cindy Berry Audio for Gentle Waters
(SATB arrangement but beautiful words and melody; could be sung unison)
4. Take My Heart by Roger Summers
5. Be Thou My Vision (traditional; from hymnal) *Add flute melody in background for easy dressup
6. Come Thou Fount (traditional; from hymnal) *I have a ladies’ two part acappella arrangement of this song to hopefully publish by the weekend.
