Over the past couple of years I’ve been trying to be more intentional at memorizing the Word along with my kids. I’ve found that for us, the easiest way is to sing a song.
Songs for Saplings
I have spent the last couple of days trying to find a song to use with our co-op. Usually I try to get the main song for the semester to go along with the verses we are memorizing. This sememster we will be studying and memorizing Romans 12: 9-18. So far I haven’t come across any songs that fit, but I’m still looking (so if you know of any, please let me know!) I wish there was a resource where you could type the passage and it would link you up to all the songs and printables for that verse (not a project that I’ll be spear-heading—just a wish 😉 )
Anyway, while searching I came across the Seed Family Worship Collections. Oh these are awesome! I have all of them on my wish-list! Very up-beat, contemporary scripture songs.
Seeds of Courage
Seeds of Faith
Seeds of Praise
Seeds of Purpose
The Power of Encouragement
Another big plus is that on their website they have free printable memory verse cards and checklists to go along with each album.
Another favorite resource has been Scriptunes. Over the years my kids have been involved with Upward basketball and cheerleading. Each participant was given a Scripture-song CD. We loved listening to the songs! The only problem was that the only way to get the CD was if you were involved with Upward. Just recently though, Mike Blackwood has made Scriptunes available for purchase online! I was excited to find this information out since we are missing one of the CD’s.
God Prints is another wonderful scripture song series. There are 3 different cd’s: Totally Tangerine, Radical Raspberry, and Great Grape. I picked songs from the three and made my own compilation on Itunes.
Do you have any favorite Scripture songs? I’m always looking for more to add to our collection.
Thank you! I've been looking for something like this, and now I have lots of sources.
We have been using Song for Saplings as well! The kids and I have learned so many great verses!!
