Sometimes one is just in the mood for tranquility.   It is in those times that I love Quiet Worship!

Here is a growing collection of some of my favorites.  Many songs are glorying to the Lord, and there are some selections I have added just because they are beautiful and make me think of Heaven or just a beautiful place or creation God has fashioned on earth.

What is our definition of quiet worship?  Calm, peaceful, serene and restful  music.   Certainly there is a place for more celebratory music, but for many, if not most, “soft” sounds are more conducive to relaxation, reading, meditating, worship, prayer and/or intercession.

Feel free to comment and/or recommend your personal favorites.  Perhaps I’ll post them here.  Enjoy!

EVA CASSIDY ~ Over The Rainbow

Although this is not a “worship song” per se, it is “The” absolute most beautiful arrangement I’ve ever heard.  It always reminds me of God, this beautiful earth he gave to us, and Heaven, where, by God’s grace all we, who have trusted Christ for Salvation, will go one day.   Sadly, Eva left us at age 33.

Psalm 96:9 -Worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness; tremble before him, all the earth.

Rick Founds plays guitar and sings this quiet worship song, inspired by Psalm 96:9. Go to his website for lyrics/chords.

As a songwriter, Andre has had two pre-nominated songs for dove awards and has written a song entitled “Praise Him” for the 2007 stellar winning album “The Struggle is Over” (Emtro Gospel )

Don Moen – You make me lay down

You make me lie down In green pastures
You make me wanting for nothing
You fill my hunger with honey from your sweet sweet word
You let me worship before you So I will love you and adore you
You are my Shepherd, You are my Jesus, You are my Lord
