Details will continue to be updated on this sheet here:
Aug 1-4th - Camp. Many of you will be participating... more thoughts on this to come. Nag me if I don't get them coming.
Song thoughts connected to theme:
- Desert Song *suggested theme song*
- Awakening
- Blessed Be Your Name
- Enough
- Oceans
I haven't totally looked through all our lists yet. What else would be good for "thirst"?
The following possibilities have been discussed:
- Glorious Ruins (key of D)
- Bones (key of A)
- I Surrender (from 'Cornerstone', key of D)
Although those would indeed be good, don't overload people with mounds of new music. Mm mm. Not good. So choose one of those, I'd say.
If you do decide to use one, use my log-in at www.praisecharts.com to download (my email and newjerus) - and put in proper key as I suggest above. It'll cost you $2.25.
Tues, Aug 5 --

Rocio -- A few details about 'spare tire' songs: The "spare tire" song is not really meant to be an extra song used at the end of a service. It's meant to be an extra song that could be used anywhere in the service -- thus the use of the word "spare". It does not need to be listed in the program; the lyrics just need to be available in the bulletin. Does that... make sense?
