How Deep the Father's Love on the pipes... that must be gorgeous! <br /><br />I do believe Getty's wife writes also. I read that many of Keith's songs are co-written with his wife. I do know she sings... and you can hear the Irish accent in her voice. :)<br /><br />-CarolynAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043971967398769903.post-26772779784065117892016-08-31T09:51:39.930-05:002016-08-31T09:51:39.930-05:00Oh I know all those songs, and we sing them in chu...Oh I know all those songs, and we sing them in church. Even better, I put "How Deep the Father's Love For Us" on the bagpipes.<br /><br />I didn't know Getty's wife wrote. We have one CD and she sings some.Glenn E.

Well said. But don'...Your points are correct. Well said. But don't forget (for point #3) "you tube"... that is where everyone is told to go in order to "learn" new worship songs. HAHAHA!<br /><br />Yes! Getty and Townend are wonderful modern day lyricists! I love their songs, which, as you said, are very much like the hymns of old. I hope some of their pieces make it - and remain - in hymnals, to be joined with the other great worship songs of the ages.<br /><br />Look these up, if you are not familiar with them already. They are written by either Townend, Getty, or both. Getty's wife also writes pieces.<br />In Christ Alone<br />How Deep the Father's Love for Us (I JUST LOVE THIS ONE)<br />The Power of the Cross<br />Come People of the Risen King<br />Behold the Lamb<br /><br />Those are ones I know. I might know more. They have many more wonderful pieces with which I am not familiar, but I certainly appreciate the lyrics of the ones I've read so far. <br /><br />Oh that churches would incorporate THESE songs into worship and "86" the Hillsong and other repetitive CCM junk.<br /><br />-Carolyn<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
