Christian Songs from a Bygone Era

[ToastAndTea]

I wanted to share some old and classic favorites from (not too long ago).

I find this music ushers in the presence of God like nothing else.

I hope it blesses your heart. I remember hearing this music when I was a child and being in awe of it.

Aystin Miles composedboth "In the Garden" and "Dwelling in Beulah Land," both of which have the most beautiful poetic lyrics of any traditional hymn. When I was a Methodist pastor in a traditional church, I felt the need for a livelier traditional hymn to supplement our Hymn book . So I went for a long walk in the country, meditating on what to do. Suddenly the words of an old hymn I'd only heard once 30 years prior were sung in my head! When I then introduced "Dwelling in Beulah Land to my congregation, the effect was electrifying, partly because our pianist was an accomplished jazz musician. Here are just the first 2 verses:

Oh my goodness! He's the original artist? I've only heard Amy Grant sing that song. That song is part of my childhood.

I came after the 1960-1970's Jesus Movement, but thanks to the internet, I discovered Nancy Honeytree. Does anyone want to give love to this movement's First Lady? This was the first song of hers that I ever heard, Pioneer. Hope it blesses you!

Pioneer is one of my favorite songs.
Rick Pino used same/similar lyrics to sing that song again.
