If you’ve been following along the last few months, you’ve seen four songs crop up—one for each of the first four Psalms.
Confession: we’re a good deal farther along on this project than we’ve let on. ;)
We’ve created a new site dedicated to music based on the Bible, called AnthemBible.com. Right now, Jeffrey and I are focusing our energies on writing a song for each of the Psalms, but we hope to create some other projects in the future (like an instrumental piece for each book of the Bible, for example).
But not only are we writing a song for each psalm—we’re packaging up a suite of resources for the worship leaders and musically-inclined among you to be able to download and use for free.
Each song package includes an audio recording, a lyric sheet, a chord chart, and sheet music that lays out the parts in the recording.
Oh, and we’re actually eight songs in, not just four!
You can check them all out here:
- Psalm 1: How Blessed
- Psalm 2: In Zion Alone
- Psalm 3: You Lift My Head
- Psalm 4: Though We Tremble
- Psalm 5: In the Morning, O Lord
- Psalm 6: Return, O Lord
- Psalm 7: Lord, My God and My Refuge
- Psalm 8: What Is Man?
Listen to AnthemBible: The Psalms
You can play all the recordings back-to-back through this playlist—and if you want an index of all the resources available for each Psalm as we make them available, stay posted here.
Which is your favorite so far? I’d love to hear about it in the comments.
Love Psalm 6. Great work! Very moving… with excellent congruity between the words of the Psalm and the musical arrangement.
We’re interested in getting the music for Psalm 3. Is it still available?
Thank you!
Hi, Teresa! I just updated these links. You should be able to download the goods by clicking the link of the Psalm you want. Enjoy! =)
I just listened to Psalm 1. I liked it very much.
I’d like to know how to get the music for it to learn & sing in our church.
These songs are all wonderful expositions of the Psalms. I am wondering if there are plans to continue with this project. Additionally, the links no longer seem to be functioning. I was hoping to lead a bible study on the psalms and thought these could be a wonderful resource.
Beautiful!
Fantastic job on all of them! My favorite is Psalm 3.
Thanks, Franklin! That one turned out really well, I think.
