Fab Five!!-All About The Kids
It is interesting how kids just naturally love music. They like upbeat, happy music. They don’t like slow melodies or listening to sad lyrics. They like music that makes them smile and dance and have a good time. My children, like me, have always heard gospel music playing. It is the first genre of music that they were exposed to.
I am so glad that they enjoy listening to it and that we can all enjoy it together as a family. I feel blessed to be able to pour into them the wonderful world of gospel music. As they grow older and they are outside of my direct influence, I have faith that they will always seek God. I feel strongly that Gospel Music is a big part of that. The top Fab Five! songs for this week, kiddie style are…………
1.“In The Sanctuary”-This song is on Kurt’s Carr’s “Awesome Wonder” CD. This lively praise and worship song is a favorite of my kids. My younger one likes to play and sing this song on his piano. He really likes the part at the end where the chorus comes in and out several times.
2.“Glory to Glory”-I think my kids will always have a special place in their hearts for Fred Hammond. We have the Spirit of David and Inner Court albums on cassette tape (!!) and we would play it on their kiddie cassette player over and over. “Glory to Glory” and “Shout Unto God” are still favorites today when they hear them.
3. “Friend of God”-A lot of songs by Israel and New Breed are favored by kids because of the hard hitting beats. Some that my kids like are “Friend of God”, “I Am Not Forgotten”, “Still Standing” and “You Are Good”.
4.“Set Me Free”-The kids love when this song comes on the radio! It is a favorite……they like to sing the part that says, “I don’t even know where my life would be…”. Whenever this song comes on, the radio goes up full blast. Myron Butler has a definite winner with this one.
5.“Victory”-Who can resist the energy that is Tye Tribbett?! Another song that gets the kiddies dancing around the house!!
** Honorable Mention-Martha Munizzi’s-Because of Who You Are” and Hillsong United’s-“Salvation is Here”-Favorites of Joshua’s class at Lakewood. He told me he really likes “Salvation is Here”. It is a favorite of mine, too.
And those are my favorites, kiddie style! Purchase some great lively gospel CD’s for the kids in your life or turn on your favorite gospel music station. Even if you have teenagers there is some wonderful gospel rap music available. Placing the Word of God in the hearts of children is an act that will pay off for generations to come. Once God’s word is placed in the heart it never leaves. It may seem that it does…….but it will always come back to memory.
